Priyanka Chopra to play his character in his biopic
Ma Anand Sheela, the controversial figure best known for her association with Osho in Oregon before their turbulent separation, shared her views on two competing biopics focusing on her life. Priyanka Chopra and Alia Bhatt are going to act in these films. Although the shooting of neither project has started, Sheela clearly expressed her support for Alia’s biopic and gave it her blessings. Mother Anand Sheela does not want Priyanka Chopra to play her character in her biopic In a recent chat on a YouTube channel called Dastaan, mother Anand Sheela revealed that neither Priyanka Chopra nor director, Barry Levinson alerted her about her life before announcing their project. However, Sheela expressed her consent to Alia Bhatt for the role. She thought that she and the Raazi actress had something in common during their younger days, which played a role in getting Alia approved for the role. When Sheila was questioned about Priyanka’s rejection, she said, “She never asked me officially. The director didn’t even ask. Only journalists have asked me about this. My favorite was Alia Bhatt, because I looked like her when I was younger. Recently, Sheela had made it clear that she does not agree with Priyanka’s participation in this project. She told Hindustan, “I told him that I do not allow him to do the film because I have not chosen him…In Switzerland, we send legal notices very easily. I sent them an email, which is considered legally binding there.”
