Rakul Preet Singh is currently on a career-high with several anticipated films in her kitty. The actress, who is one of the biggest names in the South industry, is making her own space in Bollywood as well. The actress had earlier revealed her wish to share screen space with the Arjun Reddy star Vijay Deverakonda, but that has not been possible till now. However, there did come a chance for Rakul to work alongside Vijay once; she was approached for Geetha Govindam. The actress revealed that she could not take up the offer because he had already signed De De Pyaar De and adjusting the dates was not possible for her.
In a recent interview with an entertainment portal, Rakul revealed that she was first offered Geetha Govindam. However, she had to turn down the offer because she had already signed Ajay Devgn’s De De Pyaar De. Since the shooting was to take place at the same time, it was not possible for her to adjust the dates for the Telugu film. Though she admitted that she was extremely eager to be a part of the film, she did not have any regrets about rejecting the offer. The role offered to Rakul eventually went to Rashmika Mandanna. Geetha Govindam, that released in August 2018, traced the story of the character of Vijay Deverakonda, a college professor who tries to woo Rashmika Mandanna and all the hurdles in their paths. The film was a success at the box office.
De De Pyaar De too was a box office hit. Along with Rakul, it starred Bollywood's superstars Ajay Devgn and Tabu. On the work front, Rakul was last seen in Milap Zaveri's Marjaavaan.
