No Gustakhiyan for Priyanka Chopra confirms mother Madhu Chopra

It’s confirmed! Priyanka Chopra won’t be doing Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Gustakhiyan. Her mother Madhu Chopra, who manages the commercials of the actress’ production house Purple Pebble Films, said so.

This lays to rest all speculations on Priyanka’s collaborating with the filmmaker on his Sahir Ludhianvi biopic.

“She loved the script but due to her tight schedule won’t be able to do Gustakhiyan. Bhansali wanted to make the film this year, but Priyanka has no dates.

Priyanka’s mother also confirms that the actress will be lining some films for next year.  “Priyanka is meeting a lot of directors and reading some scripts too. She will finalize something for 2018,” says Madhu.

The fate of Gustakiyan remains uncertain with SLB not being able to find an actor to play the title role of the renowned poet-author play wright. Irrfan Khan, who was rumored to play Sahir Ludhianvi, has also not accepted SLB’s offers.

Abhishek Bachchan was said to be the next choice. But SLB, who is busy with Padmavati, was unable to comment on this development.
