Eight years ago, Ajay Devgn and Ranbir Kapoor played step-brothers in Prakash Jha’s political drama, Raajneeti. Even though the two actors got along well off the set, there seemed to be a growing distance between them during the promotions. The reason being that Jha had warmed up to RK, who was on an ascent at that stage and moved slightly away from his earlier favourite, Devgn.
Circa: 2016. Filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani, who was casting for his biopic on Sanjay Dutt, actually offered Ajay a cameo, as Sunil Dutt. Time elapsed, the script changed and the reunion of Ajay and Ranbir was aborted.
However, now, things look interesting again thanks to filmmaker Luv Ranjan, the new-age craze, who is bringing these two superstars together in his next. Ranjan’s film is said to be an interesting love drama of sorts. It’s too early to reveal details because the script will go through several drafts before it is finalised. And even though it will go on floors only in 2019, there is palpable excitement in the trade about the project. Even the actors themselves are looking forward to their screen reunion.
