The
first
screening
of
Saawariya
was
held
on
Sunday
night
[October
28]
for
those
associated
with
the
film
and
the
reports
flowing
in
are
tremendous.
“Yes,
the
reactions
are
overwhelming.
Those
close
to
me
can
be
extremely
outspoken
when
it
comes
to
commenting
on
my
work.
But
they're
thrilled…
I
am
not
nervous
this
time
[as
the
release
date
draws
nearer].
On
the
contrary,
I
am
cool
and
composed," Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali
tells
me.
With
Saawariya
slated
for
release
next
Friday,
there's
talk
that
Bhansali
is
planning
to
revive
Bajirao
Mastani,
which
he
had
announced
a
few
years
ago.
There's
also
talk
that
he's
planning
to
start
a
film
on
the
famed
Heera
Mandi
of
Lahore.
The
grapevine
is
also
abuzz
that
the
film-maker
is
planning
a
love
story
again,
with
freshers
heading
the
cast
yet
again.
“I
am
not
revealing
anything
right
now…
Honestly,
I
haven't
decided
what
my
next
move
would
be.
I
cannot
think
of
anything
till
Saawariya
releases,"
he
smiles.
Bhansali's
also
non-committal
on
the
film
that
he's
co-producing
with
Bhushan
Kumar,
to
be
directed
by
Bhansali's
sister
Bela
Segal
and
staring
Adnan
Sami
as
the
lead
man.
“Yes,
I
read
Bhushan-ji's
statement,
but
I'd
like
to
announce
the
film
once
everything
is
finalized.
Let
me
finalize
the
star
cast,
the
technicians
and
then
make
a
proper
announcement.
After
all,
it's
my
sister's
film,
someone
I
love
so
much.
I'd
want
the
very
best
for
her
and
I'd
see
to
it
that
she
gets
the
best,"
the
doting
brother
states.
