Ranveer to star in Aditya’s Befikre

In a homecoming of sorts, Ram Leela actor Ranveer Singh is all set to star in mentor Aditya Chopra’s much-anticipated directorial comeback <g data-gr-id="12">Befikre</g>: Those Who Dare to Love.

This would be the first time Aditya will direct a film in seven years and without <g data-gr-id="15">superstar-friend</g> Shah Rukh Khan, the leading star of his directorial previous ventures— Dilwale Dulhania Le <g data-gr-id="14">Jayeinge</g> and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi.But the casting choice can be explained by filmmaker’s description of <g data-gr-id="16">Befikre</g> as his “youngest and riskiest” movie ever.

“This is a really special video. This is the fourth floor at Yash Raj studio. It is the place where Yash ji used to sit and Aditya <g data-gr-id="13">sits</g> and essentially this is where I started my journey as an actor,” the actor said.
