It's no news the film is now being made with Bhatt herself and has been retitled as Gangubai. And as far as the leading man of the film is concerned, a report by Mumbai Mirror says Bhansali is keen to cast Kartik Aaryan for the part. The actor was even seen leaving the filmmaker's office a few days back and that further makes the rumours stronger. Talking about this film to Mirror back in March, Bhansali said, "I love the story, it's been with me for long and I'm keen to make the film. Priyanka and I are in talks."
Any official announcement from the makers' side is yet to be made and they are waiting to announce further details at the right time. On the work front, Aaryan has as many as four big films in his kitty that include Pati, Patni Aur Woh, Imtiaz Ali's untitled romance, Dostana 2 and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. Bhatt, on the other hand, will be seen in Brahmastra, Sadak 2, RRR, Takht ,and of course, Gangubai.
