Movie inspired by the life of Sushant Singh Rajput is in the works

Tik Tok star who had became a rage on social media for his uncanny resemblance to late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput, had been roped in to play the lead role in Vijay Shekhar Gupta’s production venture ‘Suicide or Murder: A Star was lost’. The movie is directed by Shamik Maulik.

Vijay Shekhar Gupta made the announcement on social media, alongside sharing the first poster of the movie. “A boy from a small town became a Shining Star in the film industry. This is his journey. Introducing @officialtiwarisachin _ as ‘The Outsider’ in #SuicideOrMurder,” he wrote.

Gupta said the film will go on floors in mid-September and it will be short in Mumbai and Punjab. The crew is eyeing a Christmas 2020 release.

Sachin Tiwari is popular on the Tik Tok platform and became a sensation for his resemblance with Sushant Singh Rajput.

Sushant passed away on June 14. The Mumbai police had confirmed that the actor died by suicide.

‘Dil Bechara’, where the actor made his final appearance onscreen, will be released on the OTT platform Disney + Hotstar on July 24. The movie is directed by Mukesh Chhabra. Academy Award Winner A R Rahman composed the music for the film. Sanjana Sanghi is the leading lady. The movie is based on the book ‘The Fault in Our Stars’.

Back in 2018, when the official announcement of the movie was made, the original cast Ansel Elgort and Shailene Woodley and ‘The Fault In Our Stars’ author John Greene expressed their excitement about the film.
