Sanjay
Dutt
has
left
the
makers
of
his
yet
untitled
film
opposite
Kangana
Ranaut
in
the
lurch
after
an
offer
from
Mani
Ratnam
for
a
film
opposite
Aishwarya
Bachchan,
also
starring
Abhishek
Bachchan.
Sanjay
was
committed
to
do
the
candy
floss
romantic
film
produced
by
T-Series
film
starring
Kangana
which
was
being
directed
by
the
duo
Vinay
Sapru
–
Radhika
Rao
who
had
earlier
directed
Lucky
-
No
Time
for
Love
(2005)
for
T-Series.
The
T-Series
film
was
to
be
shot
extensively
in
the
US
with
also
some
portions
to
be
filmed
in
India.
While
the
T-Series
production
house
officials
are
maintaining
a
brave
stand
by
telling
us
that
Dutt
is
still
"on" for
their
project,
Dharam
Uberoi,
his
business
manager,
has
stated
that
he
was
never
confirmed
for
the
T-Series
film.
Our
sources,
however,
confirm
that
Dutt
has
no
inclinations
to
do
the
T-Series
film
anymore.
Our
sources
reveal,
"Dutt
was
not
the
first
choice
for
the
role.
South
superstar
Vikram
was
chosen
for
the
part
by
Mani.
But
the
not
so
exciting
response
to
the
Abhi-Aish
jodi
in
Sarkar
Raj
made
Mani
rethink.
Instead
of
opting
for
a
completely
unknown
star
for
Bollywood
along
with
the
couple
he
decided
to
go
in
for
Sanjay
Dutt
and
reduce
the
business
risk
for
the
film."
"Dutt
jumped
at
this
opportunity
by
a
maker
like
Mani
Ratnam
immediately
and
committed
to
the
film
without
even
going
through
the
script.
He
allotted
all
the
committed
dates
of
his
T-Series
film
to
this
film,"
the
source
adds.
This
will
be
the
third
time
Sanjay
Dutt
be
starring
opposite
Aish.
He
was
earlier
seen
opposite
her
in
Hum
Kissi
Se
Kum
Nahi
(2002)
and
Shabd
(2005).
Both
of
these
were
massive
flops
at
the
box
office!
