Shraddha Kapoor and Sushant Singh Rajput would have collaborated much before Chhichhore in THIS movie but the Stree 2 star was written off
Unknown to many, Shraddha Kapoor, much before Chhichhore, had a chance to star with Sushant Singh Rajput in a film that emerged as a cult classic. Know why didn’t it happen.
Shraddha Kapoor and Sushant Singh Rajput starred in the 2019 film Chhichhore which was both commercial and critical success at the box office. However many don’t know, but the duo had a possibility of featuring together way back in 2013. The film was Kai Po Che for which Shraddha had auditioned but wasn’t selected.
While speaking to Remo D’Souza on Mashable India, casting director Mukesh Chhabra revealed the same and said, “She’s very hard-working. Her first audition for me was for Teen Patti. Then she did a couple of films that didn’t work and there was a downfall. She then auditioned for Kai Po Che! but that didn’t happen. She wasn’t selected… Then there was a break. Then Aashiqui 2 happened.”
Mukesh recalled how Shraddha Kapoor never gets tired and is always ready to audition. Since the time she started, her energy has remained the same. Remo D’Souza while speaking about his experience with Stree 2 star shared that Kapoor is very hardworking and shot the ABCD’s 2 hit track Sun Saathiya in just 7 hours.
While Sushant and Shraddha didn’t feature together ever again, their only collaboration - Chhichhore became immortal. The coming-of-age drama was directed by Nitesh Tiwari under the production of Sajid Nadiadwala with Fox Star Studios having its distribution rights.
Chhichhore was loosely based on Tiwari's personal experiences as a student at IIT, Bombay, and also featured Varun Sharma, Naveen Polishetty, Tahir Raj Bhasin, Tushar Pandey, Saharsh Kumar Shukla, Shishir Sharma and Mohammad Samad in key roles. It was very recently that the film completed seven years and Shraddha shared a wholesome video celebrating the same.
