New Delhi: Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Padmavati is about to roll in theatres from December 1, 2017. While the movie has already created a lot of buzz and is even in the middle of a controversy, reports are that Deepika has been roped in for yet another SLB project.
Not only this, Deepika might be sharing screen space with none other than Abhishek Bachchan!
Trade analyst and Industry tracker Ramesh Bala took to Twitter and announced that Deepika and Abhishek had signed SLB'S untitled film. The movie will be a biopic of eminent poet and lyricist, Sahir Ludhianvi.

Earlier, reports were that Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra will be doing the film but this latest development has put a rest to those rumours.
Sahir Ludhianvi was the pen name of a legendary poet-lyricist, Abdul Hayee. The legend had won many awards and had also made a lot of contributions to the Hindi Film Industry.
Some of the most popular songs written by him include Abhi Na Jao chhodkar ke dil abhi bhara nahin, Saathi haath badhana, Aye meri zoharjabin and Neele Gagan Ke Tale to name a few.
There hasn't been an official confirmation by Sanjay Leela Bhansali or the cast of the film.
