Shahid’s dreams to work with KJo crash


Shahid’s dreams to work with KJo crash

Shahid Kapoor's wait to work with Karan Johar's Dharma Productions just got longer. We reported how the actor had suggested Dharma co-produce the Hindi remake of Tamil hit Vettai along with UTV, and for some time, it even looked like his dream was about to be fulfilled.
But between reports of being shadowed by an unknown stalker and getting feedback on the recently aired promos of his next Teri Meri Kahani, Shahid will now have to deal with the disappointment of Vettai being produced by UTV alone.
A source close to the project told Mirror, "Shahid had earlier committed to a film with Karan Johar, which was to be directed by Punit Malhotra but it did not happen due to certain reasons. With Shahid keen to work with Karan as that's one banner that has eluded him so far, things seemed to fall in place when UTV came up with a proposal to remake Vettai and Shahid suggested KJo co-produce it. UTV and KJo were planning to work out the details of a joint production. However, now it seems the deal is not working out."
Asked why Dharma opted out of the project, the source explained, "Karan is already doing a co-production with Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Telefilms. He does not want to do another coproduction.
He has a long-standing relationship with UTV and does not want to hamper it. Besdies, he is busy with his own directorial venture Student Of The Year. However there are no ill-feelings between them and UTV is associated with Dharma Productions in other ventures."
Both Karan Johar and Siddharth Roy Kapoor of UTV chose not to comment on the issue.
