Has Vikrant Massey landed Zoya Akhtar's film?

Vikrant Massey who had dropped out of Gul Khan’s show, Qubool Hai in October 2013 to give his Bollywood career a serious leg up, might have got lucky. According to buzz, he’s landed a meaty role in Zoya Akhtar’s next film starring Anushka Sharma and Ranveer Singh slated to go on floors this year.
Vikrant who had been hosting the episodic Yeh Hai Aashiqui(UTV Bindass) for three months stepped into Rishabh Sinha’s role as Ayaan Khan in Qubool Hai and worked in that show from March 2013 to late October before taking a ‘break’ to pursue his Bollywood career.Vikrant incidentally had made his debut in Bollywood in Vikramaditya Motwane’s Lootera also starring Ranveer Singh and Sonakshi Sinha and was appreciated for his short role. Vikrant who’s done TV shows, Balika Vadhu, Dharam Veer and Baba Aise Vaar Dhoondo in the past before landing Qubool Hai, was also expected to make an entry in Qubool Hai sometime in March 2014, because the channel and production house felt his presence would add a twist to the storyline. Even Vikrant had expressed his willingness to do the same.
