Kartik Aaryan has stepped out of Karan Johar’s Dostana 2 and yesterday, Dharma Productions released a statement that read, “Due to professional circumstances, on which we have decided to maintain a dignified silence-we will be recasting Dostana 2 directed by Collin D’Cunha. Please wait for the official announcement soon.” While the makers are looking for new actors to fill in for Kartik, Karan is said to have suffered a loss of whopping Rs 20 Crore for the shoot so far.

According to a report by ABP News, a source revealed that Kartik was showing ‘unprofessional behaviour’ and ‘interfering in the script’. Karan Johar and Dharma Productions are said to have incurred a loss of several crores after removing Aaryan.

The source further revealed, “Karan decided to not tolerate Kartik Aaryan’s ‘tantrums’ and instead drop him from the film even if he had to bear losses worth crores. He thought that it would be better to remove Kartik from film and not work with him in future.”

 

The source also revealed the reason why Karan had to take such a drastic step, “Dharma Productions did not make any change in the script which Kartik Aryan heard before signing the film. Karthik’s interference with the script couldn’t be tolerated and Karan Johar had to take such a big decision.”
