Actor Sushant Singh Rajput will not star in his "Kai Po Che" director Abhishek Kapoor's next film "Fitoor".
The 27-year-old actor had made his Bollywood debut last year with Kapoor's "Kai Po Che" but now has dropped out of "Fitoor" due to date problems.
"The film, for which he had allotted dates this year and kept himself free, has shifted from its original October 2013 schedule to March 2014 and now to July 2014.
"It now clashes with his dates allotted for 'Paani' next year due to which he had to let it go. He hopes to collaborate with Abhishek Kapoor on some project in the future," a statement read.
"Fitoor", which is an adaptation of Charles Dicken's classic novel 'The Great Expectations', will have Katrina Kaif as the female lead.
