Dharma production has reportedly replaced actor Kartik Aaryan from their upcoming project ‘Dostana2’.The movie was announced in 2019 but the shoot had to be delayed due to the pandemic. The reason for the decision was Kartik’s unprofessional behaviour during the shoot of the film. While no one officially confirmed the news, a trade source has announced that the actor has been ousted from the movie and that Dharma will no longer work with Kartik Aaryan in the future. The source states, “The reason for Kartik Aaryan to not continue with the film as stated by him is the creative differences after one and a half years and completing over 20 days of the shoot. This has never happened in the history of Dharma where an actor has walked out of the film for creative issues. Dharma has decided not to work with him in the future.” Another source said, “Kartik got upset with the banner when they gave Shashank Khaitan’s Yoddha to Shahid Kapoor. Although Shahid soon quit, they never approached Kartik for the role anyway. Also, since Kartik’s dates were not available for Dostana2, Karan decided to go ahead and start Mr. Lele with Vicky Kaushal and Janhvi Kapoor from April. The moment Kartik got to know about this development; he informed the production house that the only dates available for Dostana2 this year will be April onwards. Karan understood what Kartik was doing and quickly reprimanded him for the same. He was genuinely upset with Kartik as Janhvi had to pick between Dostana2 and Mr. Lele. The last we heard, Karan and Kartik are not speaking a word to each other.” Kartik was replaced from the project for delaying the shoot for months now. He decided to first wrap up Ram Madhvani’s film Dhamaka and that annoyed Karan. The source further informed, “Dharma is such a prestigious banner and Karan Johar is reputed for launching careers – but never at the cost of a film’s future and the livelihoods of its cast and crew.” There have been no reports as to who will step in for Kartik Aaryan’s role in Dostana2.ReplyForward
