Sushant
Singh
Rajput
is
busy
with
the
shooting
of
Drive
with
Jacqueline
Fernandez
these
days.
But
not
many
know
that
Priyanka
Chopra
was
the
first
choice
for
the
movie.
The
actress
said
no
to
working
in
this
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
starrer
and
we
know
the
reason.
For
the
uninitiated,
Drive
is
an
action
comedy
film
and
is
slated
to
release
in
March
2018.
The
Director
Wanted
Priyanka
In
The
Movie
According
to
India.com,
''The
director,
who
has
worked
with
Priyanka
Chopra
in
his
directorial
debut
Dostana
(2008)
and
is
great
friends
with
her,
wanted
the
global
icon
to
play
the
female
lead.
However,
PeeCee
had
to
turn
down
the
offer.''
He
Waited
For
Priyanka's
Date
"Tarun
had
Priyanka
in
mind
for
the
female
lead
in
Drive.
He
waited
for
her
to
get
back
to
him
with
dates.''
But...
''However,
her
commitments
in
the
West
didn't
allow
her
to
take
on
a
new
project
and
there
came
a
point
when
Tarun
had
to
either
start
or
shelve
the
project.''
That's
When
He
Approached
Jacqueline
''That's
when
he
started
scouring
for
his
leading
lady
and
found
his
Jessie
in
Jacqueline."
Tarun
Was
Upset
With
Priyanka
The
source
also
shared
that
Tarun
was
a
little
upset
with
PeeCee
since
she
kept
him
hanging
in
balance
without
presenting
any
clarity
on
her
dates.
Priyanka
Did
Not
Even
Talk
To
Tarun
To
add
insult
to
injury,
her
mother
Madhu
Chopra,
who
has
kind
of
taken
on
the
role
of
her
manager-cum-spokesperson,
and
some
people
from
Priyanka's
team,
were
communicating
with
Tarun
instead
of
the
actress
herself.
