Dongri To Dubai: Angira Dhar Chooses MayDay Over The Series, Kritika Kamra Replaces Her

Reports about Dongri To Dubai have been doing the rounds for over a year now. The web-series, produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani would show the journey of Dawood, played by Avinash Tiwari. The sets have been rebuilt and the shoot has resumed. However, it faced another roadblock when Angira Dhar, who was to play Haseena Parkar, walked out of the show.

Angira has been signed for Ajay Devgn's Mayday and unfortunately for her, the dates were clashing. So, she chose the film over the series. But, the makers have already zeroed in on another actress to play the role of the don's sister, Haseena Parkar. The person in question is none other Tandav actress Kritika Kamra. Talking to Mid Day, a source revealed, “Angira has to report to the set of Ajay Devgn’s directorial venture Mayday now. Since the makers of Dongri to Dubai required the same dates, the actor, after much deliberation, decided to let go of the series. After a fresh set of auditions, the makers zeroed in on Kritika. It’s an important character that influences the proceedings, and demands a strong performer.”

Well, we hope are eagerly waiting for the series to release. A similar series is also being planned by Ram Gopal Verma and he made the announcement a few days back.
