Ranveer Singh, who made his Bollywood debut in 2010 film Band Baaja Baaraat, has been a Yash Raj Films’ favourite ever since. But interestingly, he has only been directed by the YRF honcho Aditya Chopra in 2016 film Befikre.
Recently, speculations were rife that Ranveer Singh would soon sign his next with Aditya Chopra. Deccan Chronicle had quoted a source as saying, “Adi and Ranveer have met and extensively discussed their next film together. It will be a contemporary theme but not a sexually-charged film like Befikre. It will be more in the tradition of Yash Raj Films. Ranveer will play a lovable family guy, whom everyone from the daadi to the didi dotes on.”
But now it seems, all of it was nothing more than just rumours. In an official statement, the makers have rubbished the reports saying, “Yash Raj Films would like to categorically dismiss the report suggesting Aditya Chopra is directing his next with Ranveer Singh, as reported. As of today, Aditya Chopra has not finalised anything about his next directorial. He is immersed in all his productions for at least 1 more year before he begins thinking/planning his next.”
Well, it seems we would have to wait to witness Ranveer and Aditya collaborate once again and create their magic onscreen.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Ranveer is presently shooting Gully Boy, after which he will move on to Simmba which will be followed by ’83.
