Priyanka Chopra turns co-producer with Sanjay Leela Bhansali
Priyanka Chopra’s office has an advantage like no other. It has Sanjay Leela Bhansali for a neighbour, and it’s perfect for a rendezvous with the director, as and when she pleases. Post those multiple meetings and a discussion, PeeCee is now onboard Gustakhiyan produced by the maverick filmmaker. And not just in the capacity of an actor, but also as a producer. Priyanka has already produced a Marathi film, Ventilator and is doing other regional films as well. PC has offered to co-produce Gustakhiyan with SLB, and we hear it was put down as a significant clause to come onboard. The hero has not been finalised as yet as names right from Irrfan Khan to Shah Rukh Khan and even Abhishek Bachchan have been doing the rounds. Apparently, Priyanka who has just returned to India post the Baywatch promotions might have the final say on who will be cast opposite her in the film. We also hear that she has reduced her fees for this project, as she has taken on the mantle of the producer. PC was also supposed to produce Madamji with Madhur Bhandarkar, but the film got shelved.
