Tiwari's next movie, which is being
produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, was
supposed to star Varun Dhawan in the
lead. However, reports now say that the
Dangal' (2016) director has zeroed in
on Sushant Singh Rajput.
Reveals a source, "Nitesh's film is a two-
hero project. It's a college drama with a
social message. It's a celebration of life,
love and about embracing success and
failure.
For the second lead, Tiwari is likely to
rope in Rajkummar Rao. A source
confirms, "Nitesh is keen on signing Raj.
Both of them have had a few meetings
where they have discussed the project.
They admire each other's work and the
actor has also liked the script.
"Rajkummar is working out his dates
because he's committed to a lot of
other films. The team is awaiting his
approval and they plan to announce it
only after everything is locked.
Five years ago, Rajput made his silver
screen debut with Kai Po Che!' (2013)
and Rao. And since then the two have
remained friends, reports DNA India.
Meanwhile, Rajput is finishing Abhishek
Chaubey's Son Chiraiya' and Rao is busy
with Fanne Khan,' Stree' and Ek Ladki
Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga' all of which
are expected to be wrapped up by the
end of April.
Tiwari's film will then look to go into
production in the middle of 2018.
