Sanjay Leela Bhansali on working with Shahrukh, Madhuri Dixit and Aishwarya in Devdas

Bollywood filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali, known for giving epic period films, talks about his film Devdas. He talks about the conception of the idea of the film, picking his cast Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai and Madhuri Dixit.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali: "I was alone at home and I opened the book. It was an English version with some 20 pages but every time I read or opened it in my eyes, I would feel nice, I would feel good. Then I said Chalo lets make this film. Then during that time, four-five friends called me saying I think you should make Devdas and I started connecting. I am reading, in my heart also and from outside, it just came in front of me itself."

[@abhinandangoyal1736]

Your each word is precious for me SLB💖

[@mansiera]

only read if you can bare the truth : devdas was a drama sold on all three names Srk,Aish and MD. You can have your fav performance pick but you can't discredit or say any one runned the show or simply “stole” as all had equal time space. even when the film released srk performance was appreciated the most rather than the ladies which was bit unfair! i personally enjoyed first half more rather than second as SRK Aish had life and sensuality in their chemistry which i never saw in SRK MD. Also Aish was very new to industry compared to SRK MD at devdas time but Aish equally did justice to Paro and made it unforgettable like no one else could have done. Paro was the hero of the film at many notices and Aish looked throughout a living painting in whole film. Aish managed to stand out even while having two senior and experienced leads which is commendable so i don't know why people love to discredit and ignore her impactful work. The biasiness and hate towards her is so real and visible. Bhansali was a visionary director thats why Aishwarya Rai was his first muse and slb got his first break even after having Aish in his film. Salman wasn't even able to save khamoshi at its own whereas Aish was already a big name even before HDDCS success!
