It looks like the ongoing legal battle between Nora Fatehi and Jacqueline Fernandez has now spilled into their professional space as well. Reliable sources confirm that Nora has replaced Jacqueline in Crakk: Jeetegaa Toh Jiyegaa, touted to be India's first extreme sports film, also starring Vidyut Jammwal and Arjun Rampal.

Jacqueline had started filming for Crakk in Poland in October last year. This was her first project after returning to work post the row involving conman Suresh Chandrashekhar.

However, reliable sources now confirm that she's been replaced by Nora in the film. The switch seemingly happened after T-Series took over the production of Crakk, that was initially being produced only by Vidyut Jammwal's home production Action Hero Films.

Nora further alleged that Jacqueline and the media outlets are “acting in connivance with each other” and accused the fellow actor of “prolonged and unnecessary harassment” through her statement to the media on why Nora was listed as a witness in the case. The statement of another witness in the matter will be recorded in the month of September.

About Crakk

Crakk is being directed by Aditya Datt who previously helmed Himesha Reshammiya-starrer 2005 romantic thriller Aashiq Banaya Aapne. Crakk will mark Aditya's second collaboration with Vidyut after the 2019 action thriller Commando 3.

Vidyut will be “seen performing a variety of extreme sports stunts and action sequences all on his own," as per a statement. "This changing scenario has confirmed that there are no limits but only plateaus and we must not stay there. We must go beyond them. Hence a movie on extreme sports from India,” he added.
