Sushant Singh Rajput has started filming the Hindi remake of Josh Boone's The Fault In Our Stars, directed by Mukesh Chhabra. Sushant has shared a picture, which appears to be taken on the sets of the film and captioned it as, "New Beginnings." He tagged Mukesh Chhabra and Fox Stars (the production banner) of The Fault In Our Stars in his post, which also features the lead actress Sanjana Sanghi. The Indian adaptation of The Fault In Our Stars will be Mukesh Chhabra's debut film as a director. Sanjana's entry was announced by Sushant with a tweet in March. "The beautiful Sanjana Sanghi will be co-starring with me in the remake of the Hollywood hit of The Fault In Our Stars," he wrote.
