In Short

• Jee Le Zaraa faces delays due to scheduling issues
• Alia Bhatt confirms that the film's team are intent on making it
• She assures that the film will definitely be made

Farhan Akhtar-directed Jee Le Zaraa, a road trip movie featuring Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Katrina Kaif, and Alia Bhatt, was announced in 2021 and was supposed to begin production in 2022. However, the film hasn't gone on floors yet. Actor Alia recently said that everyone involved in the making of Jee Le Zaraa has the intent of making it; the only standing issue is dates.

Speaking to The Lallantop, India Today's sister company, Alia discussed her upcoming films, one of which is Jee Le Zaraa. She added, "We have not scheduled shooting. Definitely, hogi! (It will happen for sure). It's a film that everybody—jo bhi key players hain uss film mein (the key players of the film)—actors, producers, director, everybody wants the film to happen."

However, the biggest hurdle is bringing together the cast and crew of the film. "Logistically, kaafi difficult ho raha tha to get all the dates together but I think agar sabke zehan mein hai aur intent mein hain toh woh film ban jayegi (It is difficult to get the dates of the key players together, but everyone has it in their mind that the film has to be made)," added Alia.

Earlier, Farhan Akhtar also shared that they are facing date issues, leading to the delay in Jee Le Zaraa.

Alia also talked about her film Inshallah with Salman Khan, which got shelved. The film was to be directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

“Main Sanjay sir ke saath dusri film kar rahi hoon (I am doing a different film with him), Love and War. I hope he makes Inshallah someday because bohot hi badhiya kahani hain (It is a brilliant story)," Alia shared. However, she refused to reveal if the film is about an old businessman but mentioned that it is a "lovely love story."

Recently, Bhansali shared that Alia locked herself in a room after Inshallah was shelved.

The actor was recently seen in Vasan Bala's film Jigra. Also starring Vedang Raina, the film failed to attract the audience to the cinema halls.
