Contract killer

Some crew members of the much delayed Agent Vinod have opted out of the project for fear of being jobless after signing a contract with the production house

Saif Ali Khan and Dinesh Vijan's Agent Vinod, which finally seemed poised to take off, has been delayed again. Due to this, some crew members got fed up of waiting for the film to go on the floors and hence opted out of it to work in other viable projects.

The film was supposed to go on the floors in July, but Saif could not find time for Agent Vinod as he was busy with the promotions of Love Aaj Kal. Later, both Kareena and Saif got busy with Kurbaan and the film got postponed. Then Kareena's dates were given away to the Bollywood version of Stepmom, so the film got delayed even further to January. Now, it is finally reported that the film will begin in the second half of the next year.

A source from the unit, who has backed out of the film, says, "We have been roped in for this project for over six months. We were first informed that the movie will go on the floors in December, which was then pushed to January. Finally, the other day, we got a call from the production house saying that the film might go on the floors by April and we need to sign the contract papers."

It was the commitment to the project, which seemed on a shaky path that made them back out of it. The source adds, "How can we sign the contract papers? Once we sign the contract, we can't work anywhere else. So, we will be jobless till this movie goes on the floors. Given this inconvenience, many of us have backed out of the film. We are not signing the contract as we don't want to be bound with the production house for so many months. If we do sign the contract we will be twiddling our thumbs and not earning money. Some of us have moved on since there is no guarantee of when exactly the film will take off. Meanwhile, we are taking up some other projects," adds the source.

Producer Dinesh Vijan remained unavailable for comment. Guess Agent Vinod and he were having a fictitious tete-a-tete.

This is horrible...Saif has no other films on hand. Why are they delaying the movie so much? I have a really bad feeling its coz kareena's signed Ra1...

Stepmom's dates wouldnt have pushed it back till April. Now when i nthe world is this gonna release? 2011. No Saif in 2010 😕

But Crystal, if it goes on floor in the first half, I still have a feeling with the post production and the fact that saif's also working on AV, neither of hte movies are gonna release till 2011.
