SSR had also earlier revealed in his interviews that he tends to do more films which have a good script. One such script is that of ‘Chehre’ director Rumi Jafry’s. The director revealed after his death that he was planning to do a film with Sushant, which could not be done because of his unfortunate death.
Now, while giving an interview to Times Of India, Rumi Jafry disclosed that he is planning to make Sushant Singh Rajput’s ‘favourite script’ into a movie. Rumi told ETimes, “Now that Chehre is out there, I found the opportunity to pull out the script I wrote for Sushant and I read it. Now I have to decide with whom to make the film and when to make it. You know, each time I looked at the script it reminded me of Sushant, so I used to put it back on the shelf. It has been over a year now and it was his favourite script, so I will surely make it.”
On a related note, Rumi Jafry’s movie ‘Chehre’ featuring Amitabh Bachchan and Emraan Hashmi playing lead roles, got released on August 27, 2021. The movie also stars Rhea Chakraborty, Krystle D’Souza, Annu Kapoor playing supporting roles.
