2005 released film Bunty Aur Babli was one classic film that one can still enjoy. Starring Abhishek Bachchan, Rani Mukerji and Amitabh Bachchan, the film about two con artists was a fresh concept that received immense love from the audience.

Saif has opted out of the film just before the film was about to go on floors. Saif has not yet addressed the issue and we don’t know what made him walk out of the film suddenly. This unexpected exit has now landed the makers of the film in a soup.

Now, as Saif has walked out of the film just a few days before the film was going on the floor, it will be a difficult task for the makers to find a new replacement quickly. Earlier, Abhishek Bachchan, who played the lead in the original film, was approached to play the role. However, Abhishek thought that the role did not appeal to him and hence said a no. Now, we will have to wait and see who gets roped in for this role.
