The Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s directorial venture will witness Alia playing the role of Kamathipura’s famous brothel madam Gangubai who is almost worshipped in the area for the power she held and the social activities she was a part of.
While Alia headlines the film, it has already been reported that Ajay Devgn too plays an important part in the gangster saga.
In a recent development, an entertainment portal has reported that there are three other cameos in the film which required two younger actors and a female actress.
As per the entertainment portal report, Shantanu Maheshwari has been roped in to play a prominent part in the dark biography. “Sanjay Leela Bhansali was looking for a fresh face who would carry that innocence but still be convincing in a dark role.
