Alia Bhatt talks about being paired opposite Salman Khan

News has been ripe about Alia Bhatt starring alongside Salman Khan in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Inshallah. The film, slated to release on Eid 2020, will star Salman Khan and Alia Bhatt as the lead. Salman Khan shared tweet confirming his excitement to be working with Sanjay after 20 years and pairing alongside Alia.

Alia too shared her excitement about working with Salman and Sanjay together in Inshallah.

“Dream with your eyes wide open they say & I did. Sanjay Sir and Salman Khan are magical together & I can’t wait to join them on this beautiful journey called “Inshallah”,” wrote Alia on her Twitter.

However, it is being reported that a lot of criticism came Alia and Salman’s way about the significant age gap between the leads. Alia Bhatt, recently talking to the media at an event, however, shunned all rumors of receiving criticism and put everything straight.

“I didn’t get any criticism. I think I got a lot of excitement. I thnk speculation is also a form of excitement in a way and why shouldn’t there be speculation. There should be and at least I am not bothered by that and I don’t think Salman or Bhansali sir are bother,” shared the Udta Punjab actress.

Adding further about SLB, Alia stated, “I think this is a filmmaker who has given us very good films, he is someone who we all are very fond of and I think we should just trust him with his vision.”

Currently busy promoting Kalank and shooting for Brahmastra, Alia Bhatt will begin shooting for Inshallah from September this year, alongside Salman Khan.
