Sushant Singh Rajput, who is currently shooting for Abhishek Kapoor's next Kedarnath with debutante Sara Ali Khan, is being considered to play the protagonist in well-known film producer Sajid Nadiadwala's next film.
According to reports, the actor has been approached by Sajid for the movie as the producer feels that he suits the role perfectly. “Sajid is producing the project and feels that Sushant is perfect for the film. The two met a few times before taking the decision of working together,” a source reveals.
If Sushant sings the project on the dotted lines, it will mark his first collaboration with one of the top producers of Bollywood. Buzz also has it that Dangal fame Nitesh Tiwari might helm the untitled project.
Besides this untitled film, Sajid Nadiadwala has reportedly also signed a three-film deal with Suniel Shetty’s son Ahaan Shetty. The producer is also making films with Nitesh Tiwari, Saket Chowdhary and Shree Narayan Singh.
Talking about Sushant, the actor has an interesting mix of films lined up for release in 2018. Besides Kedarnath, he will also be seen in Karan Johar's Drive and Abhishek Chaubey's untitled film based in Chambal valley.
