Rani
Mukherjee
and
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali
are
no
longer
on
sharing
the
same
camaraderie
which
they
once
shared.
It
is
all
thanks
to
Rani's
diplomatic
behaviour.
Bhansali
was
responsible
for
Rani's
career
best
performance
in
Black
which
won
her
many
awards.
Expressing
her
gratitude
she
had
done
a
small
cameo
in
his
Saawariya
which
was
the
launching
pad
of
Ranbir
Kapoor
and
Sonam
Kapoor.
An
industry
source
told
us,
"When
Bhansali
approached
Rani
yet
again
for
a
small
cameo
for
his
production
Chenab
Gandhi,
she
declined
the
offer.
She
clearly
told
him
that
she
loved
the
script
and
would
love
to
do
it
only
if
she
was
offered
the
main
lead
part.
She
was
not
willing
to
play
second
fiddle
to
Vidya
Balan
who
was
finalized
as
the
main
lead
opposite
Harman
Baweja.
Bhansali
told
her
that
he
won't
change
Vidya
as
that
would
be
very
unprofessional
on
his
part.
Rani
refused
to
budge."
Industry
observers
feel
it
was
purposely
done
by
Rani
as
she
didn't
want
to
be
a
part
of
any
Bhansali
film.
She
doesn't
wish
to
offend
Shahrukh
Khan
who
is
not
on
good
terms
with
Bhansali
post
their
potshots
at
each
other
last
year.
The
King
Khan
had
poked
fun
of
Saawariya
post
his
flopping
and
this
had
angered
Bhansali
a
lot.
He
in
return
had
not
left
any
chance
to
give
a
verbal
lashing
at
SRK.
Rani
is
desperately
wanting
to
resurrect
her
dwindling
career
and
feels
Shahrukh
is
a
better
bait
than
Bhansali
whose
market
value
has
gone
down
post
Saawariya.
