Alia Bhatt and Sanjay Leela Bhansali are reportedly circling back to Inshallah — a film shelved since 2019, when Salman Khan was set to star opposite her. The project, once announced as a high-stakes romantic drama with a grand scale, is now being reworked from the ground up, according to Mid-Day. The core story remains, but the script is undergoing substantial changes. Bhansali is said to be rewriting it before locking in a lead actor. That’s where things get interesting: Salman Khan is tied up with Raj and DK’s upcoming film, Shah Rukh Khan hasn’t confirmed his next move after King, and sources suggest the new version might call for a younger performer. No casting decisions have been made yet. What’s certain is that Bhansali and Alia are talking again, this time not about Love & War, their January 2027 release starring Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal, but about a film they both walked away from years ago. The emotional weight of that past exit isn’t lost on anyone. Bhansali himself admitted in an earlier interview that Alia had cried when Inshallah was scrapped. Now, she’s back in the room. Whether this is a second chance or just a reimagining of what never was, one thing’s clear: the script is the first casualty of the rewrite. And the clock is ticking. The next step? A finalised story. Then, a name. Then, a date.
