Bhansali not to work with Priyanka on gangster drama

It turns out that Bollywood filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali will not be directing Priyanka Chopra in his upcoming gangster movie.

Reportedly, there have been rumours about Priyanka quitting Bhansali's upcoming movie based on the life of a female gangster, 'Gangubai Kothewali'.

And, the filmmaker's spokesperson also confirmed that Bhansali was not in talks with Priyanka for any such project.

"Sanjay Bhansali has a lot of love and regard for Priyanka Chopra, however, no such film has been discussed," confirmed Bhansali's spokesperson.

The comments come after Priyanka decided to walk out of Abbas Zafar's 'Bharat', which star Salman Khan as the male lead.

On the work front, the 'Mary Kom' star had earlier worked with Bhansali in 'Bajirao Mastaani'.

Priyanka will next be seen in Hollywood movies 'Cowboy Ninja Viking' and 'Isn't it Romantic'; while in Bollywood, she will play a major role in Shonali Bose's directorial debut 'The Sky is Pink'.
