Alia Bhatt In Talks For Gurinder Chadha바카라�s Disney Musical About Indian Princess? Here바카라�s What We Know

Filmmaker Gurinder Chadha is best known for her projects, 바카라�Bend It Like Beckham바카라� (2002) and 바카라�Bride & Prejudice바카라� (2004). The filmmaker is now on board Disney to direct an original musical feature, which will be inspired by a dynamic princess from Indian history. Reportedly, the film is being written by Chadha along with screenwriter Paul Mayeda Berges.

While the film has been grabbing everyone바카라�s attention, there have been reports that Alia Bhatt is a strong contender for the lead role in the project. And when Gurinder attended the actor바카라�s Hope Gala in London last month, the rumours further gained momentum. 

As per a report in Mid-Day, the two even met in January this year when the filmmaker was in India to attend Aamir Khan바카라�s daughter Ira바카라�s wedding. The daily quoted a source close to the development as saying, 바카라�The two have been in talks for a while. The final casting will happen only after the script is developed, but Alia is among the top casting choices.바카라� 

Meanwhile, Alia has wrapped up her home production 바카라�Jigra바카라�, which is helmed by Vasan Bala and also stars 바카라�The Archies바카라� actor Vedang Raina. She now has Sanjay Leela Bhansali바카라�s 바카라�Love & War바카라�, co-starring actor-husband Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal, which is aimed for a release on Christmas 2025. Apart from that, she will play the lead role in the YRF spy film with director Shiv Rawail. The female-led spy film would also star Sharvari Wagh. 

The source further added, 바카라�After playing a singer in Bhansali바카라�s period drama and an undercover agent in Rawail바카라�s movie, a Disney princess will be a great addition to Alia바카라�s repertoire. Leading the big-budget international project will also be a step forward towards making her presence felt in Hollywood after 바카라�Heart of Stone바카라� [2023].바카라� 

If indeed Alia gets on board for Gurinder바카라�s Disney musical, the actress would reportedly kick off work on it in the second half of 2025. An official announcement on the same is currently awaited.
