Balaji Motion Pictures' latest offering, A Flying Jatt couldn't work its magic at the box-office and the production house ran into huge losses. Shortly after that, Sameer Nair, Group CEO of Balaji Telefilms, admitted that the production house will be more cautious with their projects henceforth. And it seems, they are putting their words into practice.

The next project on their plate was supposed to be Veere Di Wedding, which Ekta Kapoor was producing along with Rhea Kapoor. The chick flick stars Kareena Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor, Swara Bhaskar and Shikha Talsania.

However, since this morning, rumours in the trade suggest that Balaji may not co-produce the movie. This has understandably sent flutters in the Kapoor family.

We hear, Anil Kapoor rushed to Eros International, requesting them to co-produce the chick flick along with his banner Anil Kapoor Films Company. Unfortunately, Eros too did not seem too inclined to invest in the film at the moment.

A source close to the development says, "The studio formula is collapsing. At a time like this, it won't be easy to find a producer. So a few months' delay is inevitable for Veere Di Wedding."

What adds to their woes is that they are running out of time. Kareena is expecting her first child in December and the team will have to shoot a few portions before she goes on her maternity break.

Rhea is extremely passionate about this project. So the young producer will try her best to see her dream project taking shape. Anil, on his part, too will be hunting for producers. Let's see who he approaches next. Or will they convince Balaji to come back on board? Keep watching this space.

What are the chances of this movie getting clean hit ?? An average or semi-hit fair won't make now PH to invest in movie. Atleast a Hit is needed better would be Superhit.

So much for women empowerment..
Women oriented movies dont get a producer..
A superstar wants a female centric title of a film changed when he is approached for the same..even the whole hype of that movie revolves around who will be the male leadd

How is this related to women empowerment? Balaji is struggling financially and so is EROS.. understandable that they are reluctant to invest in a movie that they can be sure would be a hit.. Padmavati is facing issues with regards to financing as well if we go by the articles.. This is business and hardly related to women empowerment

The said superstar doesn't have the time to do that movie at the first place considering he's filming Imtiaz's movie right now. He then starts filming for his next with Anand in November if I'm not wrong. The superstar's next release btw also happens to be a movie that essentially revolves around the female lead. I'm talking about Dear Zindagi there. Not to mention , according to Masand's article just awhile ago , some names were deliberately thrown out there to woo back Ranveer. Now Masand is saying that even though the superstar has no time for the movie , he asked for the title to be changed...lol. What will he get out of changing a title of a movie that he ain't doing at the first place since there's no time in his schedule for the remaining year at least.

Anywho , hoping Veere Di Wedding finds some backers man i.e if this is true. I was quite excited about the plot so hope it happens.
