Sara Ali Khan opted out of Vicky Kaushal starrer The Immortal Ashwatthama as makers revised the script: Report

There is a news piece making rounds on the internet shedding some light on the matter. According to a report by India Today, Sara walked out of Vicky Kaushal starrer The Immortal Ashwatthama after the script got revised.

The report explained that the makers wanted a younger girl in the film and at that time Sara came on board. However, after the script was revised, the dates were clashing and it was no longer doable. The report also mentioned that the makers now wanted an older actress to be cast in the film. However, it is worth mentioning that neither Khan nor the makers of the forthcoming film have not issued any official statement regarding the former’s exit from the project. 

The report also gave a sneak peek into the pre-production of The Immortal Ashwatthama as it stated Vicky Kaushal is still very much on board for the project as he has a stronghold and credibility with the audience. The pre-production for the film has already begun and since the film is mounted on a huge scale the makers have spent nearly 8-10 months on pre-production.

For the unversed, directed by Aditya Dhar, the upcoming film will see Vicky portraying Ashwatthama - the son of Dronacharya. To get into the skin of his character, Vicky was training in horse-riding and various martial art forms, including krav maga and jiu-jitsu.

Bombay High Court orders stays the release of Hamare Baarah, two days before the film’s release June 07, 2024 at 01:02PM

By Banglore Film City
Hamare Baarah, which is making news for its bold approach and thought-provoking plotline, has been mired in controversy, with the makers landing in deep trouble. The highly anticipated release of Annu Kapoor, Manoj Joshi, and Paritosh Tripathi starrer, has encountered a significant setback as the Bombay High Court has issued a stay on its release just two days before its scheduled release on June 7, extending the hold until June 14.
