To ensure star kid makes an impact with her debut in Kedarnath, Sushant Singh Rajput coaxes director Abhishek Kapoor to give her greater prominence

Sara Ali Khan and Sushant Singh Rajput
Given how Abhishek Kapoor's Kai Po Che (2013) had made the audience sit up and take notice of then-debutant Sushant Singh Rajput, the actor is well aware how one's debut film plays a significant role in shaping his Bollywood career. It is not surprising then that Rajput is ensuring that Sara Ali Khan - who forays into films with Kedarnath - gets her share of prominence in the love saga.
A source close to the production reveals, "Sushant recently watched the rushes of Kedarnath and felt that both the lead actors should get equal prominence. He feels responsible for Sara since he is her first co-actor. He even had a chat with Abhishek, insisting that Sara get as much screen time as him. Sushant wants the movie to establish her as a solid performer."
