Director Harry Baweja has a unique way of saying that he has parted ways with his stars. He has personally sent a contract letter to say that he and Kareena Kapoor have parted ways and the actress is no longer doing his next film Love Story 2050.
The film is a science fiction flick and required bulk dates. Since Kareena is already busy with Farhan Akhtar’s Don and Vishal Bharadwaj’s Omkara, she could not give the director bulk dates. It is also heard that Kareena has returned the Rs 3 crores she took as a signing amount for the film.
Bebo was signed two years ago to play the romantic lead opposite Harman and now after waiting for such along time, she has decided to opt out of the film.
“I don't have dates available, any more,” she says. “Harry Baweja delayed the film for two years. Besides, he wants to make a sci-fi for which he needs bulk dates from me. But I can't afford to give bulk dates now as I have already committed my dates to Vishal Bharadwaj and to Farhan Akhtar, for Don. There's no bad blood between us and we are still friends.”
So will she be acting in any of Baweja's future projects? "Oh yes. I have promised him that if I like the script and if I have dates available then I shall certainly work with them again," she says.
Insiders believe that Priyanka Chopra will now replace Kareena in the film.
