Bad move Kartik. The film sounds shitty and Ananya is a floppy.

Ananya was the best thing about soty2 and she is adorable and fun in her interviews. Definitely not a floppy.

Bollywood producers like trending things, Ananya was signed before SOTY2 release, when Karthik-Sara-Ananya three some stuff was at its peak.

This isn't a Dharma production movie, this movie involves Karthik's home T-series. I maybe completely wrong, but I am currently inclined to belief this version than the Kjo version.

And KJo is to blame for it. He is known for meddling and arm twisting.

You really think all of the sudden rooster is able to have so much influence on filmmakers after two hits that he can ask them to cast aside a much more accomplished actress than him and that newbie? And all this because Ananya has more appeal😆

Ananya can be more 'hot and happening' than Tapsee in KJo's world only, that too after one above average movie.

I am ready to believe that KJo did false khusphus in Tapsee's ear and threw rooster under the bus.

It’s really hard to believe Karthik has this kind of clout. Dharma isn’t producing this. It’s the two Chopra brothers Juno and Abhay who are close to KJo and part of the industry so it’s hard to dismiss his influence. Maybe Karthik was just the mouthpiece or maybe Tapsee has been lied to or maybe both. But come on, KJo’s Alia 2.0 replaces the girl who speaks against nepotism in a movie produced by his friends and we are supposed to believe he had nothing to do with it? Highly unlikely.

Ofcourse Karan did it 😆Who will give Ananya a role like this when soty2 wasn't even out just like that? Esp when the other contender was Taapsee... KJo ghusaoing a Dharma girl into another film even before her first movie released isnt a new thing at all. They rightly call her Alia 2.0. From being airheaded to getting the same kinda push from Karan,in the same manner.. its pretty obvious 😆

Funny thing is Ananya is not playing the wife’s role. Bhoomi is playing that role so either Tapsee was offered the wife’s role in which case she would be replacing bhoomi not ananya or she was offered the woh role

which doesn’t seem likely nor would it suit her in that case ananya is better suited also I think Tapsee admitted herself that she was offered the wife’s role and this article states the same so how can she be replaced by ananya?

Karthik has a knack of rubbing his female costars or actors the wrong way. He supposedly doesn't get along with Nushrat Barucha and there were rumours of him not getting along with Kriti and now getting Taapsee kicked out. What's his problem?

It happens with every outsiders they are either shown as some one full of attitude n stardom into their head or full characterless. Y will any one jump so high in an industry full of insiders. Y won't they want more of outsiders to rule so that everyone gets chance based on Talent not Papa k connection.

The outsiders has put day n night of struggle for years for a hit movie to only get work with favourite actress?? Really? And Kartik an outsider will get to choose an insider opposite him. And we r believing this shit**.

RK should calm his horse and start to read good script rather than trying to produce good blind. Insecure Soul

It will be a flop movie most probably, Taapsee better stay away from this nautanki gang. She can do better than this.

B.R Chopra's grand sons listened to some up and coming outsider actor's demands and casted the daughter of a yesteryear actor, who hob nobs with A-listers and bigwigs of bollywood. Very believable. 😆

In an interview Taapsee confirmed she was replaced by Bhumi not Ananya yet someone is hell bent on blaming Kartik. 😆

What made things interesting was that the part Pannu was approached for, went to Bhumi Pednekar, her co-star in Saand ki Aankh, which both actresses are currently shooting. Produced by Anurag Kashyap, it's inspired by the lives of Chandro and Prakashi Tomar - the country's oldest women sharpshooters. "For me it was immaterial to who it had gone to," she said. "It's a wonderful script and a beautiful role and whoever gets it is really lucky to have it."

Did it become awkward on the sets? Pannu said it was Pednekar who reached out to clear the air. "I was like, 'Why are you apologising? It's not your fault," said Pannu. "She was somewhere conscious that it shouldn't make it awkward between us during Saand Ki Aankh. I was very clear it's not going to affect anything between us. We have never discussed this every again."

Karthik ke kandhey pe rakh ke, KJo is firing shots.

Otherwise, I don't think roosters have power to fly so high.

This nickname for him always makes me laugh even when I don’t want to lmao 😂
