Kartik Aaryan was removed from Dostana 2 approximately two years ago. After Kartik's exit from the Collin D'Cunha-directed movie is undergoing a change in its cast. According to media sources, Karan Johar for whatever reason removed the actor from the movie. Kartik has now spoken up on the subject. He stayed silent about the real reason he was removed from the film, though. On Aap Ki Adalat, the actor claimed that sometimes, such things do happen. He explained why he had never previously discussed this subject.
On the TV show, Kartik Aaryan was asked why KJo dropped him from Dostana 2. To this, he said, "This happens sometimes. I haven't spoken about this before." While he didn't reveal the reason, the actor added, "I believe in what my mother has taught me and these are my values too... when there's an altercation between two people, the younger one should never speak about it. I follow that and hence I never speak about it."
The actor was further questioned about if he quit the movie since the producers refused to give him extra pay. In response to this claim, Kartik said, "This is like Chinese whispers, a make-belief story. I have never left a film because of money. I am very greedy, but in terms of script and not money."
So, was the alteration in the script to blame for the consequences? Kartik vehemently denied this, saying, "Pandemic happened, there was a gap of 1.5 years and there were some pre-planned changes in the script which couldn't happen."
It appears that Kartik and Karan have put the past behind them. KJo recently lauded the actor on Instagram after the trailer for Kartik's forthcoming movie Shehzaada was released.
