Sanjay Leela Bhansali discusses working with Manisha Koirala and Sharmin Segal in Heeramandi

Sanjay Leela Bhansali opens up about working with Manisha Koirala and Sharmin Segal in Heeramandi.

Acclaimed director Sanjay Leela Bhansali opens up on helming an ensemble cast of seasoned and fresh talent in his Netflix series Heeramandi. From reuniting with early muse Manisha Koirala to directing niece Sharmin Segal, the filmmaker gets candid on navigating the experiences.

Bhansali acknowledges fans’ criticism of Segal’s ‘bland’ debut but refrains from commenting. He reminisces about picking the newcomer, who assisted him before, based on her ‘new energy’ that fascinated him. However, Segal constantly asked if he was pleased with the takes while underplaying as per his advice, showing her love and respect.

Of reuniting with pioneering leading lady Koirala after over 15 years, Bhansali recalls her dedication on sets. The actress sat patiently for intricate sequences, getting mehendi applied for 7 hours daily to shoot only a few parts. Yet, she delivered brilliantly, like in an iconic scene – a testament to her craft.

Both veterans, Koirala and Bhansali, return to early memorable works. Their reunion in Heeramandi now bears the fruits of their mutual growth. While respecting critics, the director sees beyond to value each actor’s unique contribution to his stories. It strengthens their collaborative process across generations on digital screens.
