We know that Chetan Bhagat's fifth novel Revolution 2020 is being made into a film by Raj Kumar Gupta, being produced by UTV.

Revolution 2020 is a love triangle that deals with unrequitted love and corruption. As per the book, the story has three main characters, Gopal, Raghav and Aarti. We were the first to tell you that the National award-winning actor Rajkummar Rao had been finalised for the role of Gopal, but we have now learnt that he has opted out of the film as the dates of his other film being directed by Ramesh Sippy are clashing with the shooting of Revolution 2020.

READ: Rajkummar Rao thrilled to be a part of 'Revolution 2020'

Rajkummar has worked with UTV before in Kai Po Che and Shahid and continues to share a good relationship with the production house and its head honcho, Siddharth Roy Kapur, Managing Director of Disney India, who, confirming the development, said, "Raj is one of the most talented actors of his generation and we have worked with him on pathbreaking movies like Kai Po Che and Shahid.

This time around, unfortunately, the dates are not working out, but I am sure we'll work together on something else very soon." Every film has its destiny and we are sure Revolution 2020 will find its destined Gopal soon.

humble background but oodles of talent

bollywood hopefuls

raj kumar rao to keep the 'tabu' mold of male

I was thinking the same thing. Other than 'hello' which was a badly made film, every CB book based film has done well. And Gopal is a good role- mainstream hero and romantic role but fits rajkumar perfectly. It was a chance for him to get a big hit in a 'hero wala' role.

oh thank you thank you☺️ ah i miss my prem preeti i wish she makes a special appearance in salman's PRDP!!👍🏼
anyways coming on the topic,arjun will be good 4 this role while varun 4 raghav but i guess the directors/producers will choose some low profile actor and no A-list actors as raghav is having guest appearance or cameo role!!!
in b/w what is OT???
