UPDATED: Sep 8, 2026 16:50 ISTSanjay Leela Bhansali and Kareena Kapoor Khan may finally be putting their past behind them. On Tuesday, the Jab We Met star was seen arriving at Bhansali's house. Dressed in a pastel blue suit, Kareena looked elegant as she stepped out. According to reports, the filmmaker has approached the actor for the female lead in his upcoming film, which stars Tamil superstar Dhanush. If the project comes together, it will mark their first collaboration and could potentially bring an end to their reported 25-year professional rift. Bhansali and Kareena famously fell out in the early 2000s after the actor screen-tested for the role of Paro in Devdas. The part eventually went to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who starred opposite Shah Rukh Khan in the 2002 film.
