Ma Anand Sheela: ‘Priyanka Chopra Did Not Take Permission Before Announcing Biopic, My Choice Was Alia Bhatt’ |
Ma Anand Sheela clarifies that her first choice for her biopic was Alia Bhatt and not
Priyanka Chopra.
For those unversed, Ma Sheela had served as an aide to Rajneesh, popularly known as Osho, prior to a fall out.
She worked as the personal secretary to Osho from 1981 through 1985. She came into the limelight after the documentary Wild Wild Country was released on Netflix in 2018.
Reportedly Priyanka Chopra and Alia Bhatt were said to play Ma Anand Sheela in two competing biopics.
But, Ma Anand Sheela recently revealed that she wanted the Gangubai Kathiawadi actress to play her in the biopic.
In an interview to Daasta YouTube channel, she also revealed that Priyanka did not seek her permission before announcing the project based on her life.
She has never asked her officially and the director too also not asked. He has only been asked about this by journalists. His choice was Alia Bhatt, because when she was younger, she looked like her.
