Sushant Singh Rajput, a talented actor who left a void in the hearts of cinema lovers, had a promising career. However, due to his over-commitments, he lost out on several potential blockbusters that could have grossed 300 crores at the box office. Filmmakers such as Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Aditya Chopra, Ekta Kapoor, and Abhishek Kapoor considered him their first choice for various projects.
Missed Opportunities with Sanjay Leela Bhansali
Sanjay Leela Bhansali offered Sushant Singh Rajput lead roles in three of his films: “Ram Leela,” “Bajirao Mastani,” and “Padmaavat.” However, due to unforeseen circumstances, Sushant couldn’t star in any of these movies. Ranveer Singh played the lead roles in “Ram Leela” and “Bajirao Mastani,” while Shahid Kapoor portrayed Raja Ratan Singh in “Padmaavat.” Sushant spoke about his decision to walk out of these films in an interview.
Other Missed Opportunities
Sushant Singh Rajput’s packed schedule and pre-occupied dates with the ambitious project “Paani” led to his inability to star in several other major films. Some notable examples include:
- “Fitoor” by his mentor Abhishek Kapoor, where he was replaced by Aditya Kapoor.
- “Half Girlfriend,” where he was replaced by Arjun Kapoor.
- “Kabir Singh,” where he was replaced by Shahid Kapoor.
- “Befikre,” where he was replaced by Ranveer Singh.
- “Romeo Akbar Walter,” where he was replaced by John Abraham.
The Impact of Missed Opportunities
If Sushant Singh Rajput had starred in all of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s films, he could have become a member of the prestigious 300 crore club and established himself as a box office star. However, fate had other plans, and he couldn’t achieve these milestones. Despite his remarkable performances and success on both the small and big screens, he couldn’t reach the pinnacle that stars like Shah Rukh Khan and Vidya Balan attained.
Sushant Singh Rajput’s untimely demise left a void in the industry, and he is deeply missed by fans and colleagues alike. His talent and potential will always be remembered.
