Sanjay Leela Bhansali Says Heeramandi Set Is The Biggest Set Of His Career; Borrowed Reference From Mumbai's Red Light Area

Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar is one of the most anticipated series of the year. Since its announcement fans are eagerly waiting to watch the show. Backing by a spectacular cast of actresses like Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chadha, Sanjeeda Sheikh, and Sharmin Segal, the story delves into the world of courtesans. Sanjay Leela Bhansali's debut in the world of OTT is expected to add a feather to his cap. 

The filmmaker recently shared that he has made the biggest set in his life for Heeramandi. As per Architectural Digest, the set has been inspired by Mumbai’s red light area of Kamathipura. Bhansali also said that he enjoyed more as his experience in filmmaking has progressed. He said, “Because I have always wanted to be lost. This is the biggest set I have made in my life. Because it's really that walls have been pushed way beyond what I thought. I would ever be able to push as a child which I thought it was. So I feel I have started enjoying and understanding more and more as my filmmaking has progressed. I have started enjoying creating walls at a distance and further and further. But I never want to dictate. I feel I have set it. The audience will find what they want to see. A lot of time people have criticised that we have so much to see that for the first time we miss the essence of the scene.”
