Ranveer Singh REPLACES Ranbir Kapoor for Kishore Kumar biopic? Meet Here

trendswire about the biopic of legendary singer Kishore Kumar have been making headlines for years. Anurag Basu was said to do the film, and Ranbir Kapoor will essay the role of Kishore Kumar. However, there is an update that might upset Ranbir fans.

If the reports are to be believed, Ranveer Singh could replace Ranbir Kapoor to play the role of Kishore Kumar in his biopic. As Mid-Day reported, the creators are planning to get closer to Ranveer Singh. However, the final casting call for the film could take place around August. The Kishore Kumar biopic is likely to be released in late 2023.

“With the creators now discussing the possibility of a cast change, Ranveer has become an obvious choice. His ability to immerse himself in a wide range of characters makes him the perfect foil to bring the maestro’s maverick personality to the screen. But Anurag still has hopes of choosing his frequent collaborator Ranbir. The higher-ups of T-Series, who are financing the film, will take a call after August, as they want to get the film on floors by the end of the year,” a source was quoted as saying by the news portal.

In June 2022, Kishore Kumar’s son Amit Kumar also shared that Anurag Basu and Ranbir Kapoor will no longer be associated with the project. “No, now we will produce it ourselves. We have started writing it,” he told E-Times.

Meanwhile, Ranveer Singh is gearing up for the release of Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani. Directed by Karan Johar, the film hit theaters on 28 July 2023. On the other hand, Ranbir Kapoor was last seen in Brahmastra Part One: Shiva and Tu Jhoothi ​​Main Makkar. He will soon be seen on Animal with Rashmika Mandanna. Besides this, he also has Brahmastra part two and part three in preparation.
