In pic: Ranveer Singh
Ranveer Singh is currently in an intriguing position, with his upcoming role as the new Don in 'Don 3' confirmed. However, there seems to be uncertainty surrounding other aspects of his career. Reports have indicated that his fourth collaboration with Sanjay Leela Bhansali, 'Baiju Bawra,' is on hold as Bhansali is currently focused on another project, 'Love And War.'
The latest report about the '83' star suggests that Ranveer Singh is eyeing to work with 7 south directors and is currently in various stages of conversation with them.
According to Pinkvilla, Ranveer Singh is scheduled to have a meeting with Atlee, the filmmaker who directed 'Jawan' starring Shah Rukh Khan. A source close to the development mentioned, "Atlee is working on the script of his next film, and he will be deciding on the cast soon. Allu Arjun is in the forefront; however, it's never locked till it's signed, sealed, and done. He has promised to meet Ranveer Singh in the coming few weeks to discuss a collaboration."
The source also revealed that Ranveer Singh has met 'Jailer' director Nelson a couple of times, and they are in the early stages of discussion with an open-ended conversation. Additionally, Singh is also in talks with AR Murugadoss, known for 'Ghajini.'
"Ranveer has liked the subject; however, he will decide on his next only after getting done with all the meetings lined up. He has appreciated the idea and will get back to Murugadoss in a fortnight," the source added.
