Shekhar Kapur releases Sushant Singh Rajput's incomplete movie Paani script

Shekhar Kapur, who was going to direct Sushant Singh Rajput in the movie 'Paani', has unveiled the script of the movie. The movie was shelved after Yash Raj Films (YRF) backed out the project. Kapur has now released the script of the movie.

Shekhar had promised Sushant that he would complete the shooting of 'Paani'. For the uninitiated, Kapur has gone on record to say that Sushant was passionate about the project and cried after it was shelved.

Sharing a BTS still, Shekhar Kapur tweeted, "Shot 12 years ago. Part of huge bank of #Paani research pics/illustrations. The film script is about a future city where the wealthy take all the water. And then use water as a weapon of political and social control. It’s a cautionary tale of what’s coming if we’re not careful."

Here's his tweet:

Shekhar had hoped that 'Paani' would get completed one day. "If you want to journey with the Gods, or your creativity, you have to walk each step in devotion, in humility. God willing, Paani will get made one day. If it does, I will dedicate it to Sushant. But it has to be made with partners that walk in humility, not in arrogance," read his tweet.

After Sushant's demise on June 14, 2020, Shekhar Kapur shared a tweet in which he stated that he knew the actor was depressed since six months, and hoped he could do something about it. The actor's last movie 'Dil Bechara' released on the OTT platform Disney+Hotstar on July 24, 2020 at 7.30 pm.
