Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming film, titled Baiju Bawra, is one of his most anticipated films. The director has reportedly spent more than 20 years nurturing the project; however, there have not been significant updates about it. Over the years, several reports have surfaced about the film’s casting, before it was eventually put on hold so that the director could focus on Love and War. According to a latest report, SLB has now ‘gifted’ the film to his Love and War hero, Ranbir Kapoor, on his birthday.

According to a Deccan Chronicle report, a source told them, “SLB’s team has already begun pre-production work. Ranbir, a huge admirer of vintage music, starts his mornings with classics from the 1950s, including songs from the original Baiju Bawra released in 1952. He’s even introducing his daughter Raha to this timeless music."
