12 Actors Rejected Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat Before Harshvardhan Rane Landed the Lead Role
12 Nov
Summary
- Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat received an 'A' certificate, surprising the industry
- Harshvardhan Rane says he never complains, even when the film got fewer screens
- John Abraham actively promoted Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat, showing his fondness for Harshvardhan
In November 2025, the Bollywood film Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat surprised the industry and moviegoers when it was awarded an 'A' certificate by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). This rating was unexpected, as the film's promos and songs did not suggest it was a typical adult-oriented movie.
Harshvardhan Rane, the lead actor of Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat, has now exclusively shared his perspective on the 'A' rating. Rane says he does not worry or complain about such decisions, but instead tries to understand the reasons behind them. He realized the 'A' rating was given based on the film's content and its alignment with the country's cultural norms.
Interestingly, Rane also revealed that as many as 12 other actors had rejected the role he ultimately played in Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat. However, Rane maintains a positive attitude, stating that he never complains about such situations and is grateful to have received the part.
Rane's co-star in the film, John Abraham, has also shown his unwavering support for the project. Abraham, who is known for his low-key social media presence, went all out to promote Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat, which Rane says is a testament to Abraham's fondness for him. Rane considers Abraham not just a friend, but someone he still looks up to with the same respect he had when he first met him as a delivery boy years ago.
