It has been reported that Sanjay Leela Bansali’s highly-anticipated film, Inshallah, is slated to begin principal photography in June with Superstar Shah Rukh Khan and Alia Bhatt.
The project could possibly become an official reality shortly after Khan’s upcoming movie Jawan’s release this June. This information has been steadily stirring curiosity among veteran actresses as well as cinephiles alike.
The concept of an older actor playing opposite a much younger actress, particularly in the realm of storytelling within the entertainment industries, has become a subject of many conversations. Recently, Sr. actress Bhumika shared her objection to such pairings.
Although this is not the first time Shahrukh Khan had previously starred alongside Alia Bhat in ‘Dear Zindagi’, it was not as two romantic leads but rather as a psychologist Professor and student. Even though Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s films often feature passionate chemistry between the protagonists, the controversy regarding this circumstance still stands.
Though this is a long-standing practice in the industry, it’s not limited to India. In Hollywood as well, we often see older male actors paired with much younger actresses. Instead of extending to the issue, we should encourage senior actresses to work with younger actors in order to address the problem.
