‘Babumoshai’ director states that Chitrangda never refunded money after walking out

Last year, Chitrangda Singh was all over the headlines as she walked out of Kushan Nandy’s ‘Babumoshai Bandookbaaz’. Now, the director has stated that after walking out of the movie, she never refunded the money that she was paid for her role in the movie. And he further added that he is not even interested in getting back the money. He is more than happy to find Bidita Bag who bagged the role after Chitrangda Singh walked out.

Speaking with a leading web portal, he said, “We never spoke about it, and she never refunded the money. God bless her, but I don’t want it back as well. I am done with the negativity and want to steer clear of this topic. It was unfair that it happened, but I have no expectations from her for anything.” (Also Read: How Divya Dutta buried herself in neck-deep mud for ‘Babumoshai Bandookbaaz’)

So for those who came late, it all started in June 2016, when the actress walked out of the movie after raising objections to a lovemaking scene between her and Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Later, Kushan clarified that it’s not true at all. He stated that she had already shot for the scene. “She had the script a year and a half before, and a detailed one at that. She was very excited about it. When the film went on floors, she started asking for changes in the story. The intimate scene that she has spoken about is a huge lie because she had already shot for that, but she never had any problems with it,” said Nandy.

‘Babumoshai Bandookbaaz’ stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Bidita Bag in main roles. The movie is slated to release on August 25, 2017.
