Now that Akshay Kumar has stepped out
of the film Mogul, two of the brightest
talents of today Ranbir Kapoor and
Ranveer Singh are in the reckoning to
play the role of T-Series honcho Bhushan
Kumar's father Gulshan Kumar in his
biopic. The film is written and directed
by Subhash Kapoor and is being
produced by Bhushan and Aamir Khan.
Apparently, Bhushan is keen on getting
either Ranveer or Ranbir to essay the
role of his father in the biopic and is
even ready to pay a humongous amount
to whichever actor gives his assent.
An entertainment portal reported,
"Earlier, Akshay Kumar was in talks to
play the lead but he opted out apparently
over creative differences on the script.
Bhushan is keen for Ranveer or Ranbir
to play the main lead of his father's role
and has approached both with the
script. Mogul is Bhushan's dream project
and very close to his heart. He is keen to
start the project as soon as possible, and
with a bigger star than Akshay. There
were rumours of Aamir Khan and Salman
Khan playing the main lead too. Aamir is
co-producing Mogul with Bhushan.
Salman is very close to Bhushan and
Aamir.

confirms that he is no longer a part of
Gulshan Kumar's biopic Mogul
Since Aamir is the co-producer on the
film and will invariably be giving his
creative inputs and Bhushan is willing to
shell out the money it is only a matter of
time that Ranveer or Ranbir gives their
nod to the project. However, there has
been no confirmation from the
producers and when Bhushan was
contacted the portal reported him
saying, "We haven't approached any
actor. Aamir will take the call on the actor
as he is producing the film with me. We
at T-Series don't have any preferences as
Aamir will decide at the right time.
Ranbir is the toast-of-the-town since he
delivered Rajkumar Hirani's Sanju and
played Sanjay Dutt on screen. He is busy
filming for Ayan Mukerji's Brahmastra
with Amitabh Bachchan and Alia Bhatt.
Lined up next is, Karan Malhotra's
Shamshera opposite Sanjay Dutt and
then Luv Ranjan's film with Ajay Devgn.
Ranveer, at the moment, is currently
shooting for Rohit Shetty's Simmba with
Sara Ali Khan. He has already wrapped up
Zoya Akhtar's Gully Boy alongside Alia.
After this, he will dive into his first biopic,
titled '83 based on cricketer Kapil
Sharma.
Both Ranbir and Ranveer have delivered
epic performances this year in Sanju and
Padmaavat. It will be interesting to see
who bags the role. We have Ranbir, who
has recently worked on a biopic and
then there's Ranveer, who will be taking
up a biopic next. Will either of the actors
be willing to gear up for yet another
biopic? The competition here is truly
close-knit, we're waiting for the final
word!
