Anubhav Sinha Comments On The Producers' Concerted Campaign Against Kartik Aaryan Calls It 'Bloody Unfair'

Kartik Aaryan has been disassociated with some of the very exciting projects in his filmography recently. The actor’s departure from Dostana 2 first shocked everyone while later the news came that he has even backed out from Shah Rukh Khan produced Freddie. These exits also gave way to some rumors about the actor losing some other projects including one with Hansal Mehta and another with Anand L. Rai.

While Kartik might not have taken it upon himself to dispel these rumours, the actor found a supporter in filmmaker Anubhav Sinha who recently spoke about it in a tweet. The filmmaker called the ‘campaign’ against Kartik ‘bloody unfair’ and lauded the actor for keeping quiet through it all.

“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 Aaryan seems concerted to me and very bloody unfair. I respect his quiet,” Anubhav wrote in his tweet.

Kartik had shot for nearly 20 days for Dostana 2 which also starred Janhvi Kapoor before the pandemic. The film was not able to resume work after the first lockdown which allegedly became a matter on contention between the actor and Karan Johar’s production company, Dharma Productions. Dostana 2 is yet to be re-cast.

More recently the actor also backed out of Freddie where he was to be seen opposite Katrina Kaif but the parting reportedly was cordial.
