Rajkummar Rao turned down romancing Ayushmann Khurrana in ‘Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan’ for Karan Johar?

Bollywood star Rajkummar Rao is one of the finest actors of this generation. The ‘Newton’ actor has reached at this level through sheer hardwork and perseverance. Rajkummar doesn’t easily get carried away with either success or failure. Now, according to reports, Rajkummar opted out of ‘Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan’ which stars Ayushmann Khurrana and instead chose Karan Johar’s ‘Dostana 2’.

According to a report in Open Magazine, Rajkummar Rao is indeed playing a gay character, but for Karan Johar’s ‘Dostana 2’. The story this time is about a gay couple who pretend to be straight.

Karan Johar is a very shrewd filmmaker and also a very successful one.

Earlier, Aushmann Khurrana and Rajkummar Rao’s bromance in ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi’ won many hearts. It appears that the makers of Ayushmann’s ‘Shubh Mangal Zyaada Saavdhan’ approached Rao to play Khurrana’s gay partner. Things did not pan out as expected and TVF fame star Jitendra Kumar ended up bagging the role.

It is also being reported that Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham and Priyanka Chopra won’t be part of ‘Dostana 2’. And the second part is expected to go on floors from October onwards.

Meanwhile, Ayushmann Khurrana is awaiting his next release ‘Article 15’. The film is being directed by Anubhav Sinha and will be releasing on June 28, 2019.

On the other hand, Rajkummar Rao will be next seen in ‘Mental Hai Kya’ alongside Kangana Ranaut.
