“Neither actors had expressed any apprehensions about working together in Welcome Back. They had scenes together,” a source told a Mumbai tabloid.

Now, due to “clash of shooting dates”, Rekha won’t be in the film. She was to essay the role of an affluent fashionista, but her dates are now clashing with Indra Kumar’s film, Super Nani.
