This yearâs much-awaited film Dil Bechara will become one of the most-loved films for more than one reason - the most important one being, this would be late actor Sushant Singh Rajputâs last film. Unfortunately, after this one, we wonât get to see the 34-year-old actor on big-screens anymore. Helmed by Mukesh Chhabra, Dil Bechara is a perfect mix of a talented, experienced ensemble cast and crew together with a well-written, multi-layered story and AR Rahman's music track, that would instantly hit the right chord with the viewers.

The filmâs premise revolves around a love story between two teenagers who suffer from cancer. Here we have listed out six reasons why you should watch Sushantâs yet-to-be released Dil Bechara:

1. Sushant Singh Rajputâs Last Film

As we mentioned earlier, Dil Bechara will be marked as Sushantâs last film as his sudden and tragic passing has left people across the country and the Bollywood industry completely in shock. Sushant was only 34 years old when he took this drastic step of ending his life. Reports suggest that he was suffering from depression over the years. This film would be nothing but an ode to the talented actor that we have lost too soon.

2. Storyline Will Take You Through Roller-Coaster Of Emotions

Thereâs no doubt that itâs an epic romance story. But let me warn you - you're going to cry. Just accept that now. Not only because of the hard-hitting narrative, but seeing Sushant playing a role that only screams - hope & positivity, will make us miss him more as we watch him. Youâll not only be engrossed in the film till the end, it will also make you think about how life is precious. Also, there's no time like the summer to indulge in a sweeping love story, right? 

3. Based On Critically & Commercially Successful Novel

Dil Bechara is a coming-of-age romantic drama which is based on renowned American author John Green's 2012 novel The Fault in Our Stars. The novel is his sixth solo and quite interestingly, the novelâs title is inspired by Act 1, Scene 2 of Shakespeare's most popular play Julius Caesar, in which the nobleman Cassius says to Brutus: "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, / But in ourselves, that we are underlings."  The novel was a massive hit and in 2014, it was made into an American romantic drama film directed by Josh Boone in the same name. That film was a commercial success.

4. Ensemble Cast

Helmed by Mukesh Chhabra, Dil Bechara marks his directorial debut and apart from Sushant Singh Rajput, the film also features debutante Sanjana Sanghi and Saif Ali Khan in pivotal roles. Although,  Saif makes a guest appearance in the film.

5. AR Rahman Music

ARRâs name itself is enough to make one excited about the upcoming songs. Academy Award-winning music composer AR Rahman has been roped in to score music for this most-awaited film. In one of his media interviews earlier, he said, "When I heard the narration of their Indian adaptation of The Fault in Our Stars and especially how music is so beautifully woven into the narrative, I got quite excited." 

Produced by Fox Star Studios, the filmâs release got delayed several times earlier due to post-production delays and recently, due to the nationwide coronavirus lockdown. It was supposed to be released on May 8 but now, as per the reports, the film will be released directly on OTT platforms soon. The release date hasnât been announced yet.

Besides, according to news reports, the filmâs director was also suspended from his services after getting allegedly accused of sexual harassment in October 2018. However, eventually he returned after receiving a clean chit from ICC on the allegations. This perhaps also added to the filmâs delay. 

Dil Becharaâs lead actor opposite Sushant, Sanjana recently took to her social media account to share an emotional message about her co-actor.

The film was previously titled Kizie Aur Manny. Meanwhile, fans of Sushant are now demanding the film to be released in theatres as a tribute to the actor, however, if the film will have a digital release or not, is yet to be seen.

Moreover, Saif in one of his earlier interviews, speaking about working with Sushant, said, âHe was very nice to me and he said he wanted to come and have a drink and talk about various things, which never happened, which I feel bad about. Maybe I could have, you know, helped in some way or not⦠I donât know. But after working with him, I quite liked him because he was nice.â The film was largely shot in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand and few portions were also  filmed across Paris, France.
