Inshallah: Sanjay Leela Bhansali film starring Salman Khan, Alia Bhatt confirmed to release on Eid 2020

Inshallah , which reunites director Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Salman Khan after a long gap, will hit the screens on Eid, 2020. The actor and the director have worked on films such as Khamoshi, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and Saawariya.

A love story, it will be Alia Bhatt’s first film with the ace director.
