Alia Bhatt was super excited to star opposite Salman Khan in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s directorial Inshallah. However, her happiness was short lived as the film got shelved reportedly due to creative differences between Salman and Bhansali. Now, as per reports published in a leading daily, it is learned that Alia had to decline another lucrative offer of starring in an Aamir Khan film as she had assigned her dates to Inshallah.
The leading daily, quoted a source, “Alia was approached for a film with Aamir Khan. However, she had to decline the offer as she had reserved all the dates for Inshallah.” Apparently, Alia was being considered for the unannounced Osho biopic which is reportedly headlined by Aamir.
The film with Sanjay Leela Bhansali is pushed but I will still see you all on Eid, 2020. Insha-Allah!!

The source further stated that Alia had to forego quite a few interesting offers because of Inshallah. The daily reported, “Alia was looking forward to collaborating with Salman and SLB. The actress is very upset as she gave up on various other projects too during the period."
Both Salman and Bhansali took to Twitter to share the news that Inshallah has been put on hold. However, Salman also tweeted that Eid 2020 that was previously reserved for Inshallah will now be the release date of Kick 2.
