Rakul Preet Singh speaks about struggle and losing films
In an interview, Rakul Preet Singh spoke about her early days of struggle and getting replaced in a big film.
The actress revealed that she was in college and studying for her exams. She used to take modeling assignments and was living in a locality in Mumbai. And she thought it would be okay if she lost one of the two films. She was signed for Prabhas’s 2011 film Mr. Perfect and she shot with the actor for a few days. During that time Rakul Preet Singh went to Delhi for her exams where she got a call from the makers that she had been replaced. Actress Kajal Aggarwal had replaced Rakul Preet Singh in Mr. Perfect. Rakul Preet Singh said it was a business call as Prabhas and Kajal’s other film was released during that period of time and everyone loved their chemistry. So, the makers of Mr. Perfect thought of repeating the same duo in their movie.
Rakul Preet Singh also revealed that she lost the biographical film on Indian cricket legend Mahendra Singh Dhoni titled MS Dhoni The Untold Story.
MS Dhoni’s biopic film was released in 2016 to widespread critical acclaim. The film emerged as a major commercial success. It was directed by noted filmmaker Neeraj Pandey and featured Sushant Singh Rajput as MS Dhoni. The film starred Disha Patani as Priyanka, MS Dhoni’s love interest who dies in a car accident. The film also starred Kiara Advani as Sakshi, MS Dhoni’s wife.
The role of Priyanka (played by Disha Patani) was first offered to Rakul Preet Singh. The actress revealed that she was heartbroken as she got replaced by such an amazing film. The actress revealed that she was shooting for another Telugu film and she had committed to them but her dates couldn’t match with MS Dhoni’s film. So, director Neeraj Pandey replaced her with Disha Patani. Rakul Preet Singh also revealed that she did another film with Neeraj Pandey after getting replaced in MS Dhoni’s biopic film.
The last several films of Rakul Preet Singh have flopped or received poor reviews. Her last hit film with positive reviews came in 2019. She starred opposite Ajay Devgn in the romantic comedy movie De De Pyaar De. A sequel of the same has been announced and is set to release in 2025. Ajay Devgn and Rakul Preet Singh will reprise their role with actor R Madhavan joining the cast as a new character.
