Actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who is now busy with Kai Po Che, an adaptation of Chetan Bhagat's novel, Three Mistakes of My Life, has given up on offers for the director, Abhishek Kapoor.
According to a source close to Sushant, "It was Sushant who was offered Aashiqui 2 before the role went to Aditya Roy Kapoor." Apart fromAashiqui 2, the Pavitra Rishta actor also let go a three film contract with Yash Raj Films which also included Aurangzeb with Arjun Kapoor.
"He was under a two film contract with UTV. And thus couldn't bag these lucrative offers," confirmed the source. Prior to offers from the Bhatt camp and Yash Raj banner, Sushant was approached for a Hollywood project. "The film was about female foeticide but he did not like the script. His priority is not about having a break and making money. But Sushant is excited by quality work," said an industry insider.
The actor gained 12 kilos to get into Ishaan's shoes for Kai Po Che. He also trained under professional cricketers for the film. In an earlier interview with TOI, Sushant had revealed his intentions of being the Asian James Bond. "I had an All India Rank of seven in the engineering entrance but I took the risk to venture into acting. Now, I can take the risk of venturing into the big screen. I have trained under Shiamak Davar and Barry John," Sushant told TOI earlier.
