Sanjay Leela Bhansali makes an exception for Deepika

It Seems everything is right on track for Rohit Shetty's ambitious project, 'Chennai Express'. First, Jeetendra moved the release date of his 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobaara' to avoid a clash with it. Now, Sanjay Leela Bhansali is willing to tweak the shooting schedule of 'Ram Leela' to help Promote Deepika Shetty's film.

"Bhansali is Known to be quite particularly acerca his shooting schedules, and Rightly so as I works with a large crew and everyone's time comes with a premium. The schedule of the film has Already been sporadically disturbed due to rains. However, he is Flexible when it comes to freeing Deepika for the promotion of her next. Deepika was required to excuse herself for a media event for Chennai Express for two days in a row, I did not complain, "says a source.It have been quite a few years since Shah Rukh-Deepika starrer Om Shanti Om and Bhansali's Saawariya were pitched opposite each other and the SRK film had won at the box-office hands down.

"Times change and everyone moves on," the source adds, "There is no animosity whatsoever Between Bhansali and Shah Rukh. They never had any deep rooted issues. Now, when his leading lady will be traveling across cities, and probably even countries, to Promote the Rohit Shetty film, the date diary is being adjusted for all involved. "

For Deepika, it is a much-need relief and the actress says, "Bhansali is a producer too and Understands The Importance of These publicity drives. We will be Promoting Ram Leela too."

A few days ago, Karan Johar and Tarun Mansukhani Approached her for the role. The film is scheduled to go on floors in November This Year.

However, This Dippy has landed in a quandary. Only last week, Mani Ratnam've Asked her to play the female lead in his next and the shooting of the love story is Also scheduled to begin in November.

A source close to the development Told TOI, "Now, you have to choose Between Deepika Karan Johar and Mani Ratnam. It is going to be a difficult decision. As it is, she has other assignments."
