It's a no from Ajay Devgn
Sanjay Leela Bhansali is working on the movie Baiju Bawra after Gangubai Kathiawadi. The story will trace the journey of Baiju Bawra, who is a singer belonging to the peasant class. He successfully scores over the legendary singer Tansen. According to the report, sources say that the role of Baiju is far more important and crucial than that of Tansen. This could be one of the central reasons why Ajay Devgn rejected the role.
