Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Ranveer Singh are teaming up once more for his musical epic, Baiju Bawra, after previously producing Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela, Bajirao Mastani, and Padmaavat.
Ranveer and Alia Bhatt will star in the film, which is scheduled to begin production in January 2024. "Baiju Bawra is an expensive film and requires utter commitment from all the actors.
Ranveer, being the consummate professional that he is, has chosen to forego all acting compensation and enter into a profit-sharing arrangement with Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
When working with a master like Bhansali, he can go to any lengths to put the film's interests ahead of his own. He might take a little token sum and retain the remainder for the movie, as per reports
Actors are therefore adjusting to the new norm as times change. Ranveer will receive his market value if Baiju Bawra is successful, and given their track record, success is guaranteed.
