Sara Ali Khan rejects Anushka Sharma’s film; is Abhishek Kapoor to be blamed?
Sara Ali Khan is one of the most promising star kids in the industry, whose debut in Kedarnath is highly anticipated by both fans and the industry people. She is cast opposite Sushant Singh Rajput in this love story with a spiritual touch, that is directed by Kai Po Che fame Abhishek Kapoor. Even though the movie will only release in December next year, that hasn’t stopped other film-makers from approaching the newbie to be a part of their films. It was reported that Anushka Sharma had also approached her to play the lead in a film that she is co-producing with Prernaa Arora.
It was also said that Sara and her mother was quite excited about the project and wanted to sign the dotted line. However, now we hear that the debutante said no to this offer, and her debut movie director is to be blamed for that. As per a report in the DNA, a source close to the development was quoted saying, “Sara’s debut film, Kedarnath will release in December next year. Abhishek Kapoor, who is directing the film, doesn’t want her to sign any other film as he feels that will distract her from her first movie outing. The team will finish shooting the film around June next year and then, there’s a lot of CGI work that needs to be done. Gattu wants Sara to concentrate completely on Kedarnath till the release of the film. Since Prernaa is the common link, the team mutually decided that Sara won’t be doing Anushka’s film anymore. But this development happened after a bit of an internal clash.”
The reason for the internal clash is Amrita Singh who feels that it was okay that her daughter is a part of two projects at the same time. The source continues, “Amrita is extremely involved in her daughter’s career and she doesn’t agree with Abhishek’s thinking. She feels it’s okay for her to sign another project while shooting for Kedarnath, and the two have been discussing and arguing over this.” Disclosing more details about the controversial project, the source added, “It’s a woman-centric drama, which also has a thriller element to it. It has been tentatively titled Bulbul and revolves around the character that was offered to Sara. The newcomer had loved the script and was keen to be a part of the project. Unfortunately, that couldn’t happen.”
Anyway, Anushka Sharma’s project will be going on floors in July next year, which is also her first production that won’t star her in the lead. Also, let’s hope Kedarnath is worth all the hassle.
