Meanwhile, Bhansali produced and directed blockbuster like 'Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela' with Ranveer Singh and his favourite Deepika Padukone in 2013. Post that, the trio went on to give two mega hits - 'Bajirao Mastani' (2015) and ‘Padmaavat’ (2018). It's been speculated that Bhansali is keen to work with Miss Padukone in his next film too. Deepika has not yet announced any of her Bollywood films, albeit she is certainly on look out for more exciting projects. Bhansali, who has penchant for introducing fresh pair in his films might just approach Deepika to star opposite Khan. If this casting coup happens, the film will mark an on-screen debut of Salman-Deepika's stunning pair.

However, neither Salman nor Bhansali have revealed anything about their next film together, but fans are already excited to know more about the forthcoming project.

Salman Khan is currently busy with his 2019 Eid release 'Bharat', co-starring Katrina Kaif, Disha Patani, Sunil Grover and Tabu.
