(2005), as he had wanted to be the first director to unite the pair, as he stated on the talk show Episode #1.4 (2004). Bhansali kept Khan on and approached Kareena Kapoor to play Mastani and Rani Mukerji to play Kashibai but shelved his plans and moved on to other projects after Khan and Kapoor both signed on to star in Kyon Ki. Bhansali initially wanted to cast Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, his lead pair from Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam (1999), as the lead actors, with Bhoomika Chawla playing Kashibai, but his plans fell through when the real-life couple had a messy, highly-publicized breakup. A passion project for director Sanjay Leela Bhansali since the 1990s, even before he made his directorial debut, Khamoshi: The Musical (1996).
