Filmmaker Gurinder Chadha is best known for her projects, 바카라Bend It Like Beckham바카라 (2002) and 바카라Bride & 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 everyone바카라s attention, there have been reports that Alia Bhatt is a strong contender for the lead role in the project. And when Gurinder attended the actor바카라s 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 Khan바카라s daughter Ira바카라s wedding. The daily quoted a source close to the development as saying, 바카라The 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 바카라Jigra바카라, which is helmed by Vasan Bala and also stars 바카라The Archies바카라 actor Vedang Raina. She now has Sanjay Leela Bhansali바카라s 바카라Love & 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, 바카라After playing a singer in Bhansali바카라s period drama and an undercover agent in Rawail바카라s movie, a Disney princess will be a great addition to Alia바카라s repertoire. Leading the big-budget international project will also be a step forward towards making her presence felt in Hollywood after 바카라Heart of Stone바카라 [2023].바카라
If indeed Alia gets on board for Gurinder바카라s 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.
