The movie was to start shooting in a week, when Lisa backed out suddenly. Director Abhishek Pathak is now planning to send a legal notice to the actress. Meanwhile, he has already finalised a newcomer to replace Lisa and play the lead role opposite Kartik Aaryan in the sequel.

And it is Kriti Kharbanda. Kriti made her debut with ‘Raaz Reboot’ opposite Emraan Hashmi and Abhishek feels she is the perfect fit for the role. “For us, it didn’t matter if she was one-film-old. We were looking for a pretty girl who can act and deliver a convincing performance. After her screen tests, we knew we had found our actress.”
