Bollywood actor Aditya Roy Kapur has directly addressed and dismissed widespread industry speculation about him starring in filmmaker Mohit Suri's next project. Recent reports had suggested the actor was in talks for a role but later backed out, a narrative Kapur has now firmly clarified as entirely false.
The Official Clarification: No Talks Ever Happened
In a recent statement, Aditya Roy Kapur set the record straight. Contrary to buzzing rumours, he confirmed that no discussions or casting conversations ever took place between him and director Mohit Suri for any upcoming film. The actor humorously brushed off the speculation, revealing the true nature of their recent meetings. "The report isn't true. Mohit and I have only been meeting to play cricket, not to discuss a film!" Kapur said, as reported. This outright denial means the question of him opting out of a non-existent project does not even arise.
Fans' Hopes for a Reunion Dashed
The rumours had sparked excitement among fans eager to see the successful actor-director duo collaborate again. Aditya Roy Kapur and Mohit Suri share a notable history. Suri was instrumental in catapulting Kapur to stardom with the 2013 musical blockbuster 'Aashiqui 2', a film celebrated for its intense drama and soulful music. They later reunited for the 2020 action thriller 'Malang', where Kapur impressed audiences with a bold and intense performance. The recent rumours had fueled hopes for a third successful partnership, which have now been debunked.
Mohit Suri's Current Success
Meanwhile, Mohit Suri is riding high on the success of his latest directorial venture. His recent release, 'Saiyaara', has smashed box office records. The film marked the debut of actor Ahaan Panday, who was paired opposite female lead Aneet Padda. The sparkling on-screen chemistry between the new pair was a major highlight and contributed significantly to the film's commercial success.
While the prospect of another Kapur-Suri film remains a fond wish for fans, the actor's clear statement puts an end to the current cycle of speculation. For now, their collaboration is strictly limited to the cricket pitch, not the silver screen.
