Dharma Productions to begin recasting of film 'Dostana 2' after reports of Kartik Aryan being kicked out from the project

On Friday, Karan Johar's Dharma Productions issued an official statement regarding the recasting of the upcoming movie 'Dostana 2'.

Earlier in the day, there were several reports doing the rounds that actor Kartik Aaryan had been dropped from the project. However, the production house didn't divulge any details as to why they decided to recast the film.

The production house, in their official statement posted on Instagram simply stated:-

Back in 2019, 'Dostana 2' was announced by Karan Johar and starred Janhvi Kapoor in the lead role with newbie Laksh Lalwani, along with Kartik.

As of now, no official statement has been given by Kartik regarding his departure from the film, nor has there been any update regarding his replacement. Production on the film was already underway, and it is quite rare for a big production house to replace a prominent actor midway. Kartik had already completed the second schedule of shoot for the film.

Bankrolled by Dharma Productions, and directed by Collin D'Cunha, 'Dostana 2' is a sequel to the 2008 film, which starred Priyanka Chopra, Abhishek Bachchan, and John Abraham.
