Kartik Aaryan's ouster from films a planned campaign which is unfair says, Anubhav Sinha

Kartik Aaryan has been in the news lately for his alleged tiff with Karan Johar over creative differences for Dostana 2. Soon rumours emerged that  Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies and Aanand L Rai also dropped the star from their respective projects. Now, filmmaker Anubhav Sinha of Thappad fame, shared his views on the ongoing controversy. Taking to Twitter, Anubhav said that the rumours of Kartik’s ouster from various films seem like a campaign against the actor, as producers do not usually talk about dropping actors from their projects.  His tweet read, "And by the way... when Producers drop Actors or vice versa they don't talk about it. It happens all the time. This campaign against Kartik Aryan seems concerted to me and very bloody unfair. I respect his quiet."

After rumours of Kartik Aaryan dropping out of Dostana 2, Karan Johar's banner Dharma Productions officially announced that Kartik would no longer star in their upcoming production also starring Janhvi Kapoor and Lakshaya. "Due to professional circumstances, on which we have decided to maintain a dignified silence -- we will be recasting Dostana 2, directed by Collin D'Cunha. Please wait for the official announcement soon," the announcement read. Meanwhile, reports suggested that Kartik was replaced by Ayushmann Khurrana in filmmaker Aanand L Rai's next. However, the filmmaker dismissed these reports and stated that he met Kartik for a different film and they are still in talks. On the work front, the actor will next feature in the film titled 'Dhamaka' and Anees Bazmee's 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2' with Kiara Advani.
