Bollywood actor and filmmaker Ajay Devgn’s multi starrer Bhuj: The Pride Of India was announced early last year. But anticipation began building among fans ever since the first look of Ajay Devgn from the film was shared. Ajay Devgn’s first look as Sq. Ld. Vijay Karnik has fans asking for more. But unfortunately, after Parineeti Chopra announcement with her exit from the film due to her busy schedule, it is now being reported that Rana Daggubati too has opted out of the film.

It is being speculated that the Baahubali fame actor, has walked out of the movie citing health issues. For the unversed, Rana Daggubati was to play a lieutenant colonel of the Madras regiment in the ensemble drama. But now it is said that the actor and the makers of the film have amicably parted ways.

A certain source has been quoted by Mid-Day saying, “The film requires Rana to perform heavy-duty action sequences. The makers and the actor tried to look at possible options to retain him, including hiring body doubles, but things did not work out and they parted ways amicably.”

However, it is heard that like Parineeti, Rana too had to move out of the project owing date issues. According to another source it has been quoted by Mid-Day saying, “Rana’s schedule was supposed to start around October. However, the entire shooting schedule was delayed, and now, his stint is slated for next month. Since the actor is currently busy with Hiranyakashyap, he decided to opt-out of the project. The makers have started looking for a replacement.”

Meanwhile, based on true events, Bhuj: The Pride Of India features an impressive ensemble with actors like Ajay Devgn, Sanjay Dutt, Sonakshi Sinha and Ammy Virk among others.

Directed by Abhishek Dudhaiya, the upcoming film is slated to release on the 14th August 2020.
