Anushka Sharma in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's next? Here's the truth

New Delhi: A few days ago, reports were that actress Anushka Sharma will soon be seen in a Sanjay Leela Bhansali film. While there was no official confirmation for the same, fans were quite excited to hear the same. However, looks like we will have to wait longer to see Anushka working with the filmmaker.

As per a Filmfare report, the actress has not signed any film with the ace director.

Filmfare quotes Anushka's spokesperson's statement, “Anushka Sharma would love to collaborate with Sanjay Leela Bhansali but as of now, there is no truth to the speculations claiming Anushka has been signed for his next. We request you to kindly refrain from reporting on the same.”

The actress is gearing up for the release of her next film 'Zero'. It stars Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif in the lead along with Anushka. The film re-unites the 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan' trio and will hit the screens on December 21 this year.

'Zero' will have Katrina in a glamorous role and SRK playing a happy-go-lucky man, Bauua Singh. Anushka plays a scientist who battles cerebral palsy.

Superstar Salman Khan also has a cameo and is expected to be an emotional ride.

'Zero' also marks the last on-screen appearance of Sridevi, who passed away shortly before the film's completion.
