Tamannaah Bhatia replaces Parineeti Chopra to perform at IPL Opening C

Ranveer Singh, Varun Dhawan, Parineeti
Chopra and Jacqueline Fernandez were all
set to perform at the Indian Premier League
2018 (IPL) Opening ceremony.
Later on, Ranveer opted out from
performing at the event due to an injury in
his shoulder. He was soon replaced by
Hrithik Roshan, who immediately started
rehearsing for his act.
Ranveer's spokesperson said, "After multiple
medical checkups, the doctors have strongly
advised Ranveer Singh not to perform at this
year's IPL opening ceremony in which he
was doing the grand finale act. They feel his
high-energy performance would only
overstrain his shoulder and aggravate the
injury."
Moreover, yesterday Parineeti opted out
from the opening ceremony. She cited that
as she was busy with the shoot of Namaste
England, she did not get time to rehearse.
Her spokesperson also released a statement
saying, "Parineeti Chopra was to perform at
this year's IPL opening ceremony. She was
shooting non-stop for Namaste England in
Patiala and had back-to-back pre-committed
endorsement commitments. So,
unfortunately, she did not have enough time
to rehearse in spite of her best efforts.
Being a thorough professional, Parineeti
spoke to Wizcraft and explained to them
that she was not ok putting up a
compromised performance. Wizcraft has
been gracious enough to understand this
and agrees with Parineeti. She would not be
performing at the gala opening."
