Kartik Aaryan voluntarily exits Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies

Bollywood actor Kartik Aaryan has voluntarily opted out of Shah Rukh Khan’s production venture and has returned the signing amount too. According to the sources, Kartik had creative issues and was not pleased with the script.

“Creative differences cropped up in the last 15 days where Kartik expressed his unhappiness over the film's script to director Ajay Bahl. Since the film was a love story, Kartik Aaryan apparently felt that Katrina Kaif, who was cast opposite him, would look older to him. Eventually resulting in Kartik cordially declining the movie which was backed by Red Chillies,” added the source.

The production house had not officially announced this venture, but it was scheduled to go on floors later this year. Earlier this year, Kartik Aaryan had hit headlines for opting out of producer-director Karan Johar’s film Dostana 2.
