Reportedly, Aishwarya Rai was finalised by Bhansali for the item song in Ram Leela. However, the actress exited at the last moment.
Recently, Priyanka Chopra also shared memories of Ram-Leela dance on Instagram.
When Priyanka Chopra last worked with Sanjay Leela Bhansali, she set the stage on fire with her sizzling performance in Goliyon Ki Raas Leela Ram-Leela. The actress featured in the film for a dance sequence and impressed everyone with her hot moves. However, do you know that PeeCee was not the first choice for the ‘Ram Chahe Leela’ song from the movie?
If a report by Bollywood Hungama is to be believed, Aishwarya Rai was finalised by Bhansali for the item song. However, the actress exited at the last moment, following which Priyanka Chopra was approached by the makers. PeeCee agreed to do the item song and the rest is history.
Priyanka Chopra Opens Up On Being A Part Of Ram Leela
Last week, Priyanka took to her Instagram handle and paid a heartfelt tribute to her dance number in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Goliyon Ki Raas Leela Ram-Leela. She shared a clip of her ‘Ram Chahe Leela’ song from the movie and penned down a long note.
“When Sanjay Sir came to me with this song, it was a complicated decision, but he, as a filmmaker has always inspired me. His creative mind, his nostalgic stories usually over incredible food, the conversations of art and music to dance.. the beauty of the yesteryears but also what the future holds. And then he played the song.. and I knew I was her. Under Sanjay sir’s guidance, Ravi Varman’s cinematography shone, and Vishnu Devas choreography was magic. Him and I would rehearse during lunch breaks every day to perfect the dance sequences. This brings back such great memories,” wrote Priyanka.
PeeCee To Reunite With Bhansali Again?
A report by Hindustan Times recently claimed that PeeCee is all set to reunite with Bhansali and might feature for a dance number in his upcoming movie, Love And War. The film also stars Ranbir Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal and Alia Bhatt in the lead.
However, another well-placed industry source later claimed Priyanka isn’t reuniting with Bhansali and all such rumours are false. “Priyanka Chopra Jonas just happened to post a throwback video of her song Ram Chahe Leela. While Priyanka and Sanjay Leela Bhansali share a great fondness and mutual respect for each other’s work, there is absolutely no truth to the speculation of them collaborating at this point in time,” the source said.
