Will Rajkummar star in Shelly's directorial debut?

The year 2017 belongs to Rajkummar Rao. Although the actor is currently recovering from his leg injury, he has a great-line up in the coming months.  

After bagging Fanney Khan opposite Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, according to our sources, he will be seen in Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s sister, Shelly Chopra’s directorial debut project. A source informs, “The makers are keen to cast Rajkummar for a prominent role in this film. They have already pitched the idea to the Shahid actor. It is too early to confirm anything. Hopefully things will get clear in a month’s time.”

According to sources, Rajkummar would not be playing Sonam Kapoor’s love interest in the film but it will still be a crucial character.
