Overview
- Reports published Thursday said Sara Arjun has been tapped to play Madhubala, with no official announcement or comment yet.
- The project pairs director Jasmeet K Reen with producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali for a period tribute to the 1950s icon.
- Coverage places the film in pre-production with shooting expected to start later this year.
- Sources say Arjun will train in dialect, complete look tests, and use detailed costumes to mirror Madhubala’s screen presence.
- Madhubala was among the highest-paid stars of the 1950s and acted in more than 70 films, which heightens the stakes for any biopic.
