Akelli Star Nushrratt Bharuccha Has No Clue Why She Was Not Cast In Dream Girl 2. Says “It’s Unfair But…”
Even we are clueless about this!

It is quite sad to see the same actors not being in the sequels of the franchise. Dream Girl starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Nushrratt Bharuccha became a hit. The film was not overpowered by the romantic plot but the audience loved the pairing of the lead actors a lot. However, in Dream Girl 2, Nushrratt’s character was replaced by Ananya Panday and that was a little unusual for the fans too. During a recent interview, Nushrratt Bharuccha opened up about this change and put forth the dilemma about not being a part of the Dream Girl sequel. The actress is also looking forward to her film Akkeli’s release on the same day as Ayushmann’s film.
