The makers of Nawazuddin Siddiqui's upcoming action thriller Babumoshai Bandookbaaz recently released the theatrical trailer of the film and are gearing up for an exciting round of promotions. The film has been delayed for quite some time now and one of the prime reasons was that the leading lady of the film, Chitrangada Singh, walked out mid-way. At the trailer launch of the film, director Kushan Nandy finally decided to put all the rumours to rest and clear out the air regarding Chitrangada once and for all.
Earlier, the actress had gone on record and stated that the director had made her feel uncomfortable while the intimate scenes with Nawazuddin Siddiqui were being shot and hence she decided to walk out. However according to Kushan Nandy, there was a completely different angle to the story. He opened up on the same and said, “There were multiple issues with her… She had my script with her for one and a half years. The script was in detail, it had everything specified and even then if someone has any problem, I can’t force anyone.”
He further told the media that intimate scenes were not the reason for her leaving the film. He revealed that the intimate scenes had already been shot and the actress had issues with the script which she wanted to change. On the other hand, actress Bidita Bag who has replaced Chitrangada was thankful to the actress and said "I was waiting for an opportunity like this and as she left the movie I got the treasure".
We only can say that whatever happens, happens for a reason. Let's see how this mid-way change in the cast affected the film in the theatres 25 Aug 2017.
