There
has
been
much
speculation
about
the
reason
behind
Kartik
Aaryan
opting
out
of
Karan
Johar's
Dostana
2.
While
reports
claimed
the
fall
out
was
due
to
scheduling
issues
and
remuneration
negotiation,
now
it's
been
said
that
Janhvi
Kapoor
is
the
real
reason
behind
the
big
rift.
According
to
ETimes,
even
before
there
were
scheduling
issues
for
filming
Dostana
2,
Kartik
had
a
fall
out
with
Jhanvi
Kapoor.
The
portal
reported,
Janhvi
and
Kartik's
friendship
ended
sometime
in
January
2021,
which
allegedly
led
to
Kartik
procrastinating
on
the
filming
dates.
According
to
the
source,
the
shoot
kept
getting
delayed
as
Janhvi
had
completely
stopped
communicating
with
Kartik
and
the
actor
was
upset
about
it.
The
source
added
that
Kartik
even
reached
out
to
director
Collin
D'Cunha
and
told
him
that
he
should
rather
make
something
else,
other
than
Dostana
2.
Soon
after,
Kartik
agreed
to
return
to
the
film
but
only
if
the
makers
drop
Janhvi.

The
report
claimed,
Kartik
even
agreed
to
re-negotiate
the
fees
for
Dostana
2
if
Karan
would
make
another
film
with
him.
It
was
after
this
that
filmmaker
Karan
Johar
decided
to
drop
Kartik.
Kartik
has
already
shot
for
some
part
of
the
film,
which
will
have
to
be
re-shot
with
the
new
actor,
however,
Karan
was
ready
to
bear
the
expenses
and
decided
to
outs
Kartik
instead.
The
makers
are
yet
to
come
to
a
decision
on
who
will
take
on
Kartik's
role,
meanwhile
big
names
from
Akshay
Kumar
to
new
talent
like
Siddhant
Chaturvedi
have
been
mentioned
in
reports.
Karan
Johar
reportedly
is
very
adamant
to
cast
an
outsider
as
Kartik's
replacement
in
hopes
that
the
film
will
not
be
trolled
in
the
name
of
nepotism.
