    Casting confusion - who replaced whom in 'Run Bhola Run'?

    (IANS)


    There seems to be some confusion regarding who replaced whom in Neeraj Vora's 'Run Bhola Run'. Tanushree Dutta was apparently replaced by Celina Jaitley, but she denies it.

    'Tanushree was supposed to do the role that Amisha Patel has finally done. She was cast opposite Govinda,' said Celina.

    But Amisha firmly refutes Celina's claim. 'I haven't replaced anyone. I've been working on the film from day one. Celina has replaced Tanushree,' she said.

    Tanushree endorses Amisha's statement.

    'I was supposed to be doing the role opposite Tusshar Kapoor that Celina is now doing. I had to opt out because the film got delayed and I had other commitments, which I couldn't wriggle out of. Although she isn't paired with Govinda, the character I was supposed to do has a lot of scenes with Govinda,' said Tanushree.

    'Celina was a natural choice because she's doing other films with Govinda and their dates were easier to synchronise than mine and Govinda's. I'd have loved to work with Govinda. Sadly, they faced a lot of hiccups in their schedules earlier. Once I opted out, the film was completed smoothly. My bad luck,' she added.

    Tanushree also regrets missing out on working with the producers Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Ltd.

    'I had done a guest appearance for them earlier in 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa'. Fortunately, there was no bad blood because of this 'Run Bhola Run' incident. But like I said, I was replaced by Celina. Amisha was always in the project,' she said.
