Amid widespread speculation, Shahid Kapoor’s team has denied reports of the actor collaborating with filmmaker Sujoy Ghosh on a new thriller. A recent report suggested that the duo was aligning their schedules to work on a gripping project. However, Kapoor’s representatives dismissed these claims on Monday morning, stating that no such discussions are taking place.
The rumor had gained traction due to both Shahid and Sujoy’s strong connections to the thriller genre. Ghosh, known for his critically acclaimed films like Kahaani and Jaane Jaan, was reportedly crafting a new script that caught Shahid’s interest. Sources had suggested that timing issues had delayed the collaboration in the past but that both parties were now prioritizing the project.
Shahid Kapoor has a proven track record in thrillers, having delivered standout performances in films like Haider, Bloody Daddy, and the recent Prime Video series Farzi. His potential pairing with Ghosh excited fans, who were eager to see their combined expertise in the genre.
However, the denial has now put an end to the speculation, leaving fans wondering about both the actor and director’s next moves. While Ghosh recently stepped down from directing Shah Rukh Khan’s King, Shahid Kapoor is gearing up for his upcoming films, including Deva and a Vishal Bhardwaj directorial. For now, any collaboration between the two remains unconfirmed.
