Ranveer Singh denies being in exclusive contract for Zoya Akhtar film

Contrary to reports today that Ranveer Singh has signed an exclusive contract with Excel Entertainment and Zoya Akhtar’s next film, BizAsia can confirm this is not true.

The actor who plays the main lead in the film, will be shooting for over 75-80 days of the total 90 day schedule of the film but he is not in an exclusive contract.

Singh said, “I’m super excited to work with Zoya as I believe she’s one of the most talented directors in the industry. Moreover it’s a part that really pushes me as an actor and gives me a chance to showcase an aspect of my performance that will surprise my fans.”

With his back to back hits, the normally fussy Singh has also finally opened up to doing endorsements and has recently signed on several A-list brands. And the Excel team has been kind enough to work not only their but also his co-actors schedules around to help accommodate him as most brands want to shoot with him again for follow up campaigns in the big festive season.
