It was just some time back that we had learned about Abhishek Bachchan is a part of JP Dutta’s next war film ‘Paltan’. The filmmaker who had directed Abhishek in his debut film ‘Refugee’, also worked with him in ‘LOC Kargil and ‘Umrao Jaan’.
And guess what, we hear that Abhishek is no longer a part of ‘Paltan’.
Producer Nidhi Dutta of JP Films said,
“Abhishek Bachchan is no longer part of ‘Paltan’ for personal reasons best known to him. It has come as a shock to us as this happened less than 24 hours before our unit left to shoot in Ladakh. But we also believe that especially in the movies we make it’s the soldiers sitting up there that choose who will play them and recreate their lives on screen. Nevertheless, we wish him luck in his future endeavors. We are already in Ladakh filming with our entire cast and crew and Army personnel. We will announce the actor who is replacing Abhishek in the film soon.”
‘Paltan’ is a war drama and it stars Arjun Rampal, Pulkit Samrat, Suniel Shetty, Sonu Sood, Jimmy Sheirgill, Luv Sinha, Siddhant Kapoor and Jackie Shroff.
