Mumtaz with Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Manisha Koirala
For `Heeramandi`, Sanjay Leela Bhansali has brought together a stellar cast comprising Madhuri Dixit-Nene, Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Huma Qureshi, and others. Fans went into a tizzy when a picture of veteran actor Mumtaz with Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Koirala surfaced online, a fortnight ago. In no time, rumours were rife that the senior actor was roped in for the Netflix web series. A source tells mid-day that Mumtaz was approached by Bhansali’s team earlier this year. “She was approached for a song-and-dance sequence. It didn’t excite her much as an artiste. A few weeks later, Bhansali invited her over for lunch at his residence. Over lunch that was also attended by Manisha, he described her role in great detail. The part was everything you expect of a Bhansali character — a strong woman with a mind of her own. Mumtaz loved it and gave her nod,” reveals the source.
