It is well-known that Kriti Sanon cited date issues as the reason for her opting out of Nikhil Advani’s ‘Lucknow Central’. The film that also stars Farhan Akhtar will now see 'Mirzya' famed actress Saiyami Kher as the female lead.
'Lucknow Central' finds itself amidst controversies even before its release. Apparently, Kriti opted out of the film because she didn't want to work with Farhan. Looking at Farhan's recent run at the box office Kriti was reluctant to sign the film. Well, according to Kriti nothing of this is true!
Stating her point of view to a leading daily, Kriti opined, "Not true at all. I was very excited about doing 'Lucknow Central' as it is a really good script. My decision to opt out had nothing to do with Farhan. Unfortunately, the shooting schedule of the film got changed and because of some of my prior commitments I had no option but to opt out of the film. I look forward to working with Farhan in the future."
