Anurag Basu Clears The Air On Aashiqui 3
During a recent interview with HT City, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap said that they will be unveiling the film’s new female lead within a week. He said, “I don’t know what’s the film called right now, the shoot starts this month. We have not finalised the female lead right now; it will be announced in a week.” While the female lead is yet to be decided, Kartik Aaryan is locked for the male lead.
Basu, who referred to Dimri as his best friend, clarified her reason for leaving the film. He pointed out that it was not her image, as he is not someone to judge an actor by their roles. He said that the main issue was the dates as the actress is shooting a film with Vishal Bhardwaj which is also supposed to go on floors this month. Referring to her as a good actor, he told the interviewer to ask her the same about what happened.
