Bollywood actor Rajeev Khandelwal, known for his candidness and selective projects, recently discussed the halted project 'Chinab Gandhi' which was supposed to be directed by renowned filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Khandelwal elaborated on the circumstances surrounding the project, detailing how it was initially conceived but ultimately failed to come to fruition.

In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, the 50-year-old actor shared that he usually isn't a fan of commercial cinema, yet he found 'Chinab Gandhi' to be an exception primarily due to its impressive script and Bhansali's involvement. Khandelwal recounted that he had been signed by a commercial director for two films, but they never materialized. He noted that this project was the sole commercial film he had agreed to, emphasizing that it appeared to be commercial mainly due to the director's profile, even though the script stood out among other typical commercial offerings.

The implications of Khandelwal's statements highlight the challenges within the Indian film industry regarding project development and the often precarious nature of financing and production decisions, especially when high-profile directors are involved. The project 'Chinab Gandhi' illustrates the broader issues within Bollywood, where ambitious scripts can remain unrealized due to various factors, leaving actors and audiences anticipating potential stories that remain untold.
