The start of Maneesh Sharma's next directorial untitled film for YRF was postponed. The film was originally scheduled to move on floor this September.
Both Maneesh and Jaideep Sahni, who has written the tale and screenplay, in conjunction with Aditya Chopra, have taken an artistic decision to incorporate lip-sync songs, which have been earlier not a part of the film.
The unfortunate fallout of that is that Shahid Kapoor, who was to play the lead, has needed to pull out as a result of his other commitments. With three other projects back to back, Shahid isn't capable of readjust his dates to deal with the revised schedule.
Maneesh, speaking on behalf of both Jaideep and himself, said, "Both Jaideep and i've decided to usher in a few lip-sync songs in an effort to must be recorded before we will be able to go on floor. However, it's sad that Shahid has understandably needed to opt out for this reason delay given his packed schedule going forward."
While this development is a pity, YRF looks forward to working with Shahid Kapoor on another project being discussed with him for next year.
