RAW Postponed Sushant Gives Away Dates  To Kedarnath

The much-publicized espionage thriller RAW(Romeo Akbar Walter) directed by Robby Grewal has been pushed ahead .

Apparently the film’s leading man Sushant Singh Rajput has allotted the dates that he had given to  RAW to his old friend Abhishek Kapoor for Kedarnath, the film that would launch Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh’s daughter Sara.

It may be recalled that Sushant Singh Rajput who got a big-screen launch from Abhishek Kapoor in Kai Po Che, fell out with Kapoor when he couldn’t make time to do Kapoor’s next project Fitoor  as  he, Rajput, was busy prepping for Shekhar Kapoor’s Paani. Ultimately Paani never got made. And Fitoor flopped.

Now when Sushant and Abhishek  have patched up the actor can ill-afford to antagonize  the director over dates all over again .

Hence Sushant has surrendered the rest  of the year to Kapoor’s Kedarnath leaving the RAW team in a lurch.

The RAW co-producer Bunty Walia  insists the film has not been shelved.  “RAW is not shelved  as yet.The dates may get shifted to accommodate Kedarnath . Why would RAW be shelved? It’s a great script and the project is backed by a big business house. There is no shortage of funds, so no reason to not do the film, unless we ourselves decide to pull the plug after the dates are shifted.”

Adds Walia “Shifting of dates is a part and parcel of the film industry.”
