Shahid Kapoor will be seen next in R...Rajkumar
Mumbai:
Actor Shahid Kapoor has rubbished rumours that he has opted out of Tigmanshu Dhulia's Milan Talkies.
The actor said that the film has been offered to him but he has not signed it yet.
The film, which will be produced by Ekta Kapoor, has been in the news for a while because of speculation over the lead actor of the film.
Imran Khan, who was earlier considered for the lead role, reportedly has been replaced by Shahid Kapoor.
Rumour has it that Ekta Kapoor was not happy with the way Imran Khan promoted the film Once Upon Ay Time in Mumbai Dobaara due to which Imran was replaced by Shahid in the film.
There were reports that Shahid too refused to work in the film.
However, the 32-year-old actor said, "I have never said I am doing this film. So when Ihave not said yes to the project where does the question of me saying no come from? I have been offered the film but I am yet to decide, as there is a process like narration and all. Whenever I sign thefilm we will make a formal announcement," Shahid told.
There were reports that Shahid had said no because he didn't want to work with Shraddha Kapoor, who is a newcomer in the industry.
"This is not true as I am doing Vishal Bharadwaj's next film with her," Shahid said.
The film titled Haider is an Indian adaptation of Shakespeare's trilogy Hamlet. It is likely to go on the floorsby the end of this year and will be shot in Kashmir.
Even Shahid's leading lady in R...Rajkumar, Sonakshi Sinha, too declined to talk about her reportedly being cast asDalbir Kaur, sister of Sarabjit Singh, in Subhash Ghai's film on the slain Indian prisoner.
"As of now, we haven't made a formal announcement on this," she said.
