Apart from Malaal, the ace director is currently working on Inshallah, which will star Salman Khan and Alia Bhatt in the lead. Inshallah brings the actor-director duo together after a gap of almost two decades, after they delivered the blockbuster Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam is 1999. 

However, Salman appeared in a cameo role in Bhansali's box office dud, Saawariya (2007).

"After Khamoshi: The Musical, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and Saawariya, he and I needed to make one film together, if not 10 more. I'm glad Inshallah happened. From my understanding of him, as a man, an actor and a superstar, I know this is the right film for us to come together," Bhansali told India Today.

Salman has also confirmed another project with Bhansali besides Inshallah.
