Kareena Kapoor

Actress Kareena Kapoor is facing trouble with a capital ‘T’ where her movies are concerned. First she has been replaced by Deepika Padukone in ‘Shuddhi’, now it seems that ‘Bombay Samurai’ is too out of her kitty. The rumour mills have been busy recently with reports that Dev Benegal’s Bombay Samurai, has been aborted.

According to sources Farhan loved the script and wanted the film to roll by March 30. But Dev could not start the film on time.

“Firstly, Dev specified that he wanted technicians of his choice on his team. Excel arranged for them but he was unable to wrap up pre-production work on time. And after much deliberation, Ritesh Sidhwani decided to inform him that Excel does not wish to be associated with the film. However, they have parted ways amicably. Dev has a wonderful script and he might get a new producer soon. The star cast too may not remain the same.”

Sources further added, Ritesh Sidhwani confirmed the news saying, “Yes, we are no longer producing Dev’s film. We wanted to start last month but he wasn’t ready. Now, Farhan (his partner in Excel Entertainment) too is busy with three back-to-back films— Zoya Akhtar’s Dil Dhadakne Do, Bejoy Nambiar’s next being produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra and Rock On 2—so where is the time?”

So do you think that it is end of Kareena Kapoor’s term in Bollywood?
