Mumbai: Actress Shruti Haasan has stepped away from Adivi Sesh’s upcoming project, “Dacoit,” citing “uncomfortable work conditions” as the reason for her exit.
Earlier several reports suggested that Shruti walked out of “Dacoit” due to a scheduling conflict with her other project, Coolie. However, a source close to the development rubbished this. An insider revealed, “Shruti Haasan shot the teaser of the film last year and post that the shoot dates were being pushed every now and then. There were portions which were re-shot multiple times. The other actor in the film was involved too much in the script, and at times there were two people directing the film, which got very confusing.”
“Shruti, despite being interested in showcasing a new side to her acting and working with the original director, wasn’t comfortable with the over-involvement of the co-star. It made the workplace uncomfortable for her,” the source added.
On December 17, the makers of “Dacoit” introduced Mrunal Thakur as part of the cast, unveiling a special poster and teaser to mark the announcement. However, the news immediately sparked curiosity among fans, who were eager to understand the reasons behind Shruti Haasan’s departure from the film. The newly released poster featuring Adivi Sesh and Mrunal quickly went viral.
Reports suggest that Haasan left the film “Dacoit” due to creative differences and on-set inconveniences that influenced her decision. Additionally, some sources indicate that her departure was caused by scheduling conflicts.
Director Shaneil Deo’s “Dacoit: A Love Story” is an action-packed drama starring Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur. The duo will portray estranged lovers who embark on a series of robberies, a journey that ultimately transforms their lives.
Meanwhile, the ‘Ramaiya Vastavaiya’ actress is currently busy shooting for director Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie, featuring Rajinikanth. Following “Coolie,” Shruti is set to begin shooting for Prabhas‘s upcoming film, “Salaar: Part 2 – Shouryanga Parvam”. Apart from these, the actress also has a project titled “Chennai Story” in the lineup.
