Anurag Basu post Jagga Jasoos is currently working on a film starring Fatima Sana Shaikh, Sanya Malhotra and Aditya Roy Kapur, Abhishek Bachchan and Rajkummar Rao in lead roles. He recently also revealed about his upcoming film titled, Imali.
In an Interview with DNA Basu revealed Kangana has decided to leave the film due to date issues. Kangana was still working on Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi back in November 2018, when they were supposed to start shooting.
He has been quoted as saying, “We were supposed to start in November but we couldn’t because she got busy with ‘Manikarnika’ and ‘Panga’. Even I got busy with my other film. She wanted to be in good space and time to do this film but things did not work out.”
When asked to response to the rumours of Deepika stepping into the film, he said, “I cannot confirm till she confirms anything. I did meet her. She has to confirm it to me and then we can confirm it to others,” Basu informed the entertainment publication.
Deepika is currently recently wrapped up Meghna Gulzar’s Chhapaak with Vikrat Massey, and Kangana is eyeing the release of her next film Mental Hai Kya, co-starring Rajkummar Rao.
