Samantha Ruth Prabhu no longer part of Dhanush’s Vada Chennai
Samantha Ruth Prabhu has walked out of the film Vada Chennai starring Dhanush, citing date issues.
There is a change in the star cast of the upcoming Tamil gangster drama, Vada Chennai. Samantha Ruth Prabhu, who was to star in it along with Dhanush, has left it because she doesn’t have the dates to accommodate the film.
“Initially, when Samantha signed the project, she was told the project will be shot in two parts and she had set aside dates accordingly. However, when she learnt the film will be shot in three parts, she had no other option than to exit,” said a source close to her.

“She will be the best person to comment about her personal life,” the source said.
With four major releases already this year, Samantha is awaiting the release of Jr NTR-starrer Telugu actioner Janatha Garage.
