Kangana
Ranaut
has
replaced
Vidya
Balan
in
Shootout
at
Wadala.
Kangna
Ranaut
has
been
roped
in
opposite
John
Abraham,
who
plays
the
male
lead
in
the
film.
Initially,
Ekta
Kapoor
had
considered
Vidya
Balan
for
the
film,
but
later
dropped
the
idea
since
Vidya
wasn't
sure
whether
she
would
want
to
do
this
role
in
the
male-centric
underworld
drama.
Vidya
was
supposed
to
play
the
role
of
John
Abraham's
girlfriend,
who
will
be
playing
the
notorious
gangster
Manya
Surve.
Also,
reports
suggests
that
as
soon
as
Kangana
was
offered
the
role,
she
accepted
it
without
giving
a
second
thought
since
she
earlier
acted
in
Balaji
Motion
Pictures
post
Once
Upon
A
Time
In
Mumbaai.
