Dibakar Banerjee and Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia
Filmmaker Dibakar Banerjee is currently awaiting the release of his film `Love Sex Aur Dhokha 2`. When the teaser of the film was dropped, several wondered why Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia was missing from the promotional materials. She was cast in the film during the final days of Bigg Boss 16 where she was the participant. Reports were doing the rounds that she exited the film because of the bold scenes.
Dibakar Banerjee, in a recent interview, opened up about the challenges of casting for the film because of its controversial and gritty subject matter. While he did not take Nimrit`s name, he said that many actors dropped out of the film. He told India Today, "There are many, many people who dropped out. Honestly, going to Bigg Boss and picking an actor was just a PR plan, with Ekta making the big announcement. We also had plans to choose more. But not just actors, there are even singers, who did not want to utter Love Sex Aur Dhokha and other controversial words. If they did that, how would we get actors to be part of the film to do things that are basic for LSD 2? It is slightly gritty, bold, dark, and controversial. That`s the reality of our hypocritical society, where such films and filmmakers are not accepted. Everyone tries to avoid us.”
