There are many reasons to be excited about the project. First, it is the maverick filmmaker's OTT debut. He is also collaborating with his first leading lady, Manisha Koirala, on this project. The cast of Heeramandi also includes some of the most stellar actresses of the current generation, and the scale is not just the usual Bhansali grand, but even grander than what we have seen so far.

It turns out that Bhansali is here to satisfy the anticipation until the show hits streaming giant Netflix, as the production house just announced the release date for the first song of the show, titled Sakal Ban. Announced on the official page of Bhansali Productions, the announcement comes exactly a day after the maverick filmmaker announced his music label.
