Shahid Kapoor’s next with Amit Rai shelved
Shahid Kapoor’s much-anticipated collaboration with ‘OMG’ director Amit Rai has reportedly been shelved. The project, said to be inspired by a chapter from the life of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, is no longer moving forward.
Speaking to Mid-Day, Rai voiced his frustration over the industry’s unpredictability, “The system is so cruel. Even if you’ve proved your mettle with a Rs. 180 crore film [OMG 2], it’s not enough.”

He further remarked on the challenges faced by filmmakers in the current climate, “How is a director supposed to work here, under these systems of casting, production, star, and management? You live with a story for five years, and within minutes, somebody writes a five-pager pointing out what’s wrong and what’s right with the film.”
