"We already have a Paakeezah, don't need another one," says Sanjay Leela Bhansali on Heera Mandi

The casting for Heera Mandi has begun in right earnest. Among the actresses likely to be a part of the cast are Alia Bhatt, Huma Qureshi, Sonakshi Sinha and Tanvi Azmi. The deal with Netflix is for seven episodes of Heera Mandi in Season 1 followed by seven more episodes in Season 2.

"We already have a Paakeezah, don't need another one," says Sanjay Leela Bhansali on Heera Mandi

An informed source reveals, “The first episode is being directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali himself. The other 6 episodes will be directed by Bhansali’s erstwhile assistant Vibhu Puri.”

The series will have an abundance of songs and music, all composed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Heera Mandi is being designed as Bhansali’s own Pakeezah.

Says Bhansali, “Though there is no similarity in the plot except the tawaif (courtesan) angle of Heera Mandi would be my tribute to one of my favourite films Pakeezah. However the tribute is neither visual not emotional. It is more in spirit than in flesh.”

Says Sanjay Leela Bhansali, "How can Pakeezah not be at the back of a director's mind when he is making a film about the tawaif culture? However Heera Mandi won't resemble Pakeezah in look or mood. We already have Pakeezah. There is no need for another."

The excerpt read,’ we can’t push the ‘pause’ button on our lives. Every day counts, whether we’re doing our best or our worst. Even if we could call a time out when life becomes stressful, would we really want to? Our life’s clock keeps ticking no matter what. The only thing we truly have is time. Better to live every moment than to lose that time forever. As much as I may want to call a time out in my life, I will live every moment as fully as I can.”
