Priyanka Chopra opts out of Farhan Akhtar's film
Priyanka Chopra has opted out of director Farhan Akhtar's Voice from the Sky. Hiren Kotwani has the details.
Things haven't been going well for Farhan Akhtar much-awaited project Voice from the Sky.
First it was Saif Ali Khan who demanded Rs 12 crore for just 20 days' work.. and dropped out of Voice from the Sky.
And now the buzz is that Priyanka Chopra is out too.
The actress is supposed to have conveyed her decision to her Don director after returning from Miami, where she was shooting with John Abraham for Karan Johar's Dostana.
Date hassles
Date problems was the reason cited. Akhtar is planning to start his movie on October 1. PC is booked till then. She is currently wrapping up Madhur Bhandarkar's Fashion.
Then she will shoot for her remaining portions for Dostana before moving on to Vishal Bharadwaj's Kameenay with Shahid Kapur and Ashutosh Gowariker's What's Your Raashi? with Harman Baweja.
Casting snafus do seem to be the new illness in town, what with so many movies in production, and so few actors..and actresses.
