Deepika ditches ‘Race 2′ for a Hollywood project

Posted: 13 Feb 2012 09:36 AM PST


Actress Deepika Padukone chose to walk away from 'Race 2' after being offered a Hollywood project despite the fact that she had already shot for a week for the film. The makers of the film have decided not to take this lying down and as such, producer Ramesh Taurani has filed a case against her with Cine & TV Artistes Association (CINTAA) and Association of Motion Pictures & TV Programme Producer of India (AMPTPP).
Ramesh Taurani says, "I have been a part of the Hindi cinema industry for 25 years. I have made several blockbusters. But I have never faced a situation like this before. Our directors and the other actors are extremely annoyed with her."
If Deepika fails to respond to the complaint, then the case will pass onto the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE). If still not addressed, then she would have to face a Non-Cooperation Directive (NCD).
Senior producer Pahlaj Nihalani explains, "If Taurani has filed a complaint against Deepika, she will have to honour the dates which she had allotted to him. If she has given the same dates to any other producer, she cannot shoot for the other project."

An elated Imran says, "It's a great honour to be invited for dinner by PM. Since I am in the middle of promotions, I have requested Karan to give me a couple of hours off to attend the special event
