I pray for bhansali`s two projects black and bajirao mastani. i think he choose best actors for his film as salman khan basical,funful and perfect actor so that is best choice for bajirao mastani. shah rukh khan suited for devdas i think that is perfect role for devdas, that role would done salman khan but not like shah rukh khan . i think salman khan is best actor because he can perform all kind of roles although shahrukh khan not because this is one lack of shah , that is this shah rukh khan is not good comedian actor and salman khan is best comedian and also amir khan or saif ali khan .kareena is not best for bajirao that is suit for ash, it is my humbly request to bhansali that he should cast ash in his bajirao mastani. and also one an other request to bhansali that he should bring two best actors salman khan and shahrukh khan in his any film. i hope that bajirao mastani go ahead for askar award.
Bhansali: "Contrary to the title, Black isn't a depressing subject at all. It is an uplifting tale on the triumph of the human spirit."
That's straight out of Ashutosh Gowariker's take on Lagaan ('truimph of the human spirit'). Looks like Bhansali is really running low on inspiration. Well after making a horrible movie like Devdas, I'm certainly not interesting in seeing what rubbish he has next to offer - especially if it stars the likes of Salman Khan, Kareena Kapoor and Rani Mukherjee (three of the most overrated actors ever).

After reading ur message...its a big question as to how much u know about films & filmmaking. Before u make such remarks especially over the net u must do some ground work on the people whom u r discussing. ur comment is just like a normal roadside gossip....
Sanjay has a really good casting sense.Shahrukh is the only person who could have shown emtions of devdas sooo beautifully other than the fact that he is sooooo good looking and the beauty,dignity and grace of paro couldnt have been shown better than by ash.infact shahrukh really made me sympathize for devdas.infact when i watched dilip kumar's devdas,i feel,he had no emotion or feeling in his eyes.he just acted like a robot and i dint feel a single thing for devdas.i truly feel shahrukh's devdas is the best among all the versions of devdas and bhansali is such a talented and passionate director,he has really shown the sadness of deva and paro very brilliantly.bhansali is a very thinking and intelligent director.so what if the sets were too grand?why shud we care abt them as long as the film makes us cry and sympathize for devdas.i dont know why ppl are making such a huge issue of the grand sets of devdas.and i feel salman is absolutely the right choice for a goodlooking and regal king like bajirao.as for kareena,i am not sure how much justice she willl do to the role.i feel for that role ash was perfect but anyways if such a brilliant director like bhansali has confidence in bebo.
Bhansali is a very good and passionate director.Infact i must tell u,the devdas he made was one of the best i have ever seen.ofcourse credit must go even to shahrukh and ash for so wonderfully playing their parts in the movie.but over all,the credit goes to sanjay bhansali for making a movie with so much passion and emotion.this is one of the only movies i have cried.he has portrayed the sadness of paro and devdas very wonderfully and yes,he is a brilliant and talented director.he knows his job and performs it very well.what i like about him is that unlike other directors,he does not go for baseless media rumours and truly selects characters and stars who really suit the role.it is just a coincidence that whom he chose till today were all superstars.i am really happy that he didnt go by the media rumours about salman and decided to choose him.i feel it is truly the perfect choice for the role of a very handsome and regal king.salman has that kind of regal look about him other than the fact that he is extremely good looking and he can show emotions very beautifully with his eyes.and rani is also a nice actress she will do well with whatever role she is given.kareena i am not sure.
Its a pretty comprehensive interview. But a few more questions should have been asked which would have cleared a lot of doubts for us. If Kareena was the first choice, why did Aishwarya say that she had refused the film. How could Bhansali want to work with Kareena after she had made a lot of unhealthy comments about him. Now today Aishwarya is calling him names. Why is this so? Bhansali has made one of my favourite movies of recent times i.e. HDDCS. Since then I had a lot of trust in him. But now with the melodramatic and overplayed Devdas and all these events, I am having to do a rethink.
I cant believe that producers are funding his immature, overpriced, gawdy-looking, star-studded projects. Anybody could have made a Devdas with Shah Rukh and Ash. Sanjay relies heavily on his stars and has zero creativity. Ccinema would be better off without people lke him
