Taapsee Pannu was never finalised for ‘Pati, Patni Aur Woh’ claim producers

Bollywood actress Taapsee Pannu has been disheartened that her name was removed from the film ‘Pati, Patni aur Woh’. In an interview to Mumbai Mirror, Taapse said that they narrated the script to her in November last year and she agreed to do it. However, she learnt that her name has been dropped at the last minute from the remake of the old Hindi movie, ‘Pati, Patni Aur Woh’

Taapsee alleged that the makers didn’t even inform her about her ousting. “I was at the narration in November, in the presence of Juno and Abhay (Chopra, the film’s producers). I liked the script and gave it the go-ahead. I was asked to clear my schedule and I complied. Only the clauses remained to be negotiated. But they suddenly vanished,” she said

Clarifying the doubts, producers of the film have jointly issued a statement today and they have questioned the actress’ claim. They revealed that they were just in talks but she was never finalised for the movie.

‘Pati, Patni Aur Woh’s producer stated, “When a script is locked, every director or producer approaches actors for the casting of the film, it is a basic protocol followed by almost all filmmakers. Similarly, for our upcoming project – ‘Pati, Patni Aur Woh’, we reached out to many actors, who we thought could be our potential protagonists in the film.”

“The versatile actress Taapsee Pannu was one of the many actresses we had approached for one of the leading ladies in the film. However, we as producers had never made any commitment to her. We would like to clarify that our casting was purely done on the basis of who suited the characters to the tee. Tapasee is an extremely talented actress and we would love to work with her in future. We will soon make the official announcement about the final cast of ‘Pati, Patni Aur Woh’,” the statement added.

On the work front, Taapsee was last seen in ‘Mulk’. She will now be seen with Akshay Kumar in ‘Mission Mangal’ and with Amitabh Bachchan in ‘Badla’.
