Vineet Kumar Singh has long been known for his intense and powerful performances, often bringing depth to characters that leave a lasting impact. Despite his acting prowess, mainstream recognition has been elusive for the actor. He recently gained renewed attention for his portrayal of Kavi Kalash in Chhaava, Laxman Utekar’s historical drama. However, in a surprising revelation, Vineet disclosed that he was once offered the lead role in Lukka Chuppi, a film that eventually became a breakthrough for Kartik Aaryan.
Released in 2019, Lukka Chuppi was a romantic comedy directed by Laxman Utekar and written by Rohan Shankar. Starring Kartik Aaryan and Kriti Sanon, the film was a commercial success, featuring the concept of a live-in relationship in a conservative Indian setting. The timeline could have been very different had Vineet Kumar gotten that role instead of Kartik Aaryan.
Vineet Kumar Singh didn’t realize he was offered the leading role in Lukka Chuppi until too late
Vineet Kumar Singh recently spoke about losing out on the lead role in Lukka Chuppi, not due to auditions or competition but because of a simple misunderstanding. In an interview with Digital Commentary, he recalled, “There was a Laxman Utekar film written by a friend of mine. When he gave me the script, it didn’t seem like he was pitching it to me. I assumed he wanted feedback, so I didn’t respond immediately.”
