Tara Sutaria bids goodbye to a film with Shahid Kapoor

Set to enter showbiz with Dharma Productions’ highly awaited college-romance-drama Student Of The Year 2, newcomer Tara Sutaria has decided to bow out of her second Bollywood movie, which features superstar Shahid Kapoor as the male lead.

The untitled film is a remake of superhit Telugu film, Arjun Reddy (2017). The actress had been confirmed for the project after an extensive hunt and her decision to quit it right before the makers were set to roll the camera has surprised one and all.


However, there are some reports which claim that Tara Sutaria was forced to bid adieu to the project as her debut vehicle SOTY 2 has been shifted to May 10, 2019, from November 23, 2018 release date.

The makers of the Arjun Reddy remake are now looking at casting another actress for the movie within a couple of days. “Yes, it is true Tara is not a part of our film anymore. Our shoot is on schedule and we should be locking our leading lady in the next couple of days,” said producer Murad Khetani.

To be helmed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who also directed the 2017 Telugu original, the project is set to roll very soon.

HBO criticised for sidelining South Asian identity in 'Harry Potter' casting controversy

HBO’s upcoming Harry Potter reboot is already under fire, this time for casting Italian actress Alessia Leoni as Parvati Patil, a character rooted in Indian culture. The announcement has triggered widespread backlash from fans who accuse the makers of side-lining authentic South Asian representation in favour of what many see as surface-level diversity.

Parvati, originally portrayed by Shefali Chowdhury in the films, is one of the few explicitly Indian characters in the Harry Potter universe. The decision to cast someone with no clear Indian heritage has led to heated discussions across platforms like Reddit and X, with fans calling out what they perceive as performative inclusivity.

Harvey Weinstein sexual crimes trial turns ugly due to jurors' infighting

The tense deliberations in Harvey Weinstein’s New York sex crimes retrial have descended into open conflict.

This internal strife forced the jury foreperson to urgently alert the judge on Monday morning about a “situation which isn’t very good”, casting serious doubt on their ability to reach a fair verdict.
