Not Vikrant Massey, this star was the first choice for Deepika Padukone’s Chhapaak

The makers of Deepika Padukone’s Chhapaak dropped the film’s first look a few months back. And we have to say that it has impressed the netizens and Deepika’s fans. In fact, people are even excited to see the actress co-star with Vikrant Massey on the big screen for the first time. But did you know that the Lipstick Under My Burkha actor wasn’t the first choice for this Meghna Gulzar directorial? We’re telling you, that was the actual case. In fact, Stree actor Rajkummar Rao was the one who was first approached for the movie!

Yes, that’s right! From what we hear, Chhapaak went to Rajkummar first, and he was kicked about the subject too. In fact, he too wanted to be a part of the film eagerly! But sadly, that didn’t happen. Talking about the same, the actor revealed that, “I didn’t turn it down. Of course not! I loved that script, but my dates were so messed up. I’m so looking forward to that film. I kept telling Meghna and Deepika that it’s my loss.” What do you think about this revelation? Share with us your thoughts in the comments section below!

Workwise, Rajkummar will be seen in Dinesh Vijan’s Made In China alongside Gold star Mouni Roy. He will also be a part of Ekta Kapoor’s Mental Hai Kya alongside his Queen co-star Kangana Ranaut. He is also slated to begin shooting for Rooh Afza, opposite Janhvi Kapoor and Varun Sharma, in June.
