Mukesh Chhabra reveals why Sushant Singh Rajput rejected film offers

In a conversation at the Art of Acting conversation tour in the US, Mukesh Chhabra shared a candid reflection on his late friend. Rajput was set to star in Mr India director Shekhar Kapur's Paani, in lieu of which he ended up rejecting several opportunities that came his way as he wanted that one project to have his full focus.

Chhabra revealed how Rajput's approach was misunderstood to be his "arrogance". Chhabra said, "He said no to so many films just because of Paani. People assumed that his newfound stardom had caused him to develop an attitude of arrogance...I was there when he was confirmed for the film. He was happy like a child after the news..." The film was eventually shelved.
