"Everything was locked, and the paperwork was about to be done. However, when Aanand L Rai started working on the dates of the film, it was not in sync with Vicky's calendar. While Vicky wanted to start the shoot as early as possible, Aanand L Rai needed time for the pre-production, and to take the film on floors by summer," the source informed Bollywood Hungama.

After a series of discussions, permutations, and combinations, Vicky and Aanand L Rai have decided to part ways. "In summer, Vicky is hoping to start work on his ambitious Ashwathama with Aditya Dhar. He doesn't want to disturb the process of making this epic film and hence, decided to not be a part of the Aanand L Rai directorial," the source further informed.

Aanand L Rai is now back on the casting stage and is looking to cast someone from the younger lot of actors.
