Sonu says, “ You are my good friend but I am not comfortable in doing what you are saying because I said yes to the old script and the director.” So he thought it better to leave the project. He did not even talk about it. He said “ I was very sad but I did not say anything. I did not have any problem with the female director, have worked with Farah.”
When Sonu left the film, there were reports that Sonu did not want to work under a female director. To this Sonu replied that he had no problem with the female director as he had also worked with Farah Khan.
