Amrita Singh
, the ex-wife of
Saif Ali Khan
, had been committed doing “
Mubarakan
” under the direction of
Anees Bazmee
. On her commitment to the film, it was highly expected that
Arjun Kapoor
’s on-screen mother in “
2 States
” might do the same role in Mubarakan. But, the actress quit the film in the last moment. As she left suddenly, the makers scrambled whom to replace Amrita. Finally, they found a star to replace her and it is none other than
Ratna Pathak
. Although Ratna is replaced, the schedules are now confused. Ratna will be playing the elder sister of
Anil Kapoor
in this film. As the dates acquired for December get scrambled, the shooting had been pushed to January. When asked about Amrita’s withdrawal from the film, the team replied that the dates of Amrita didn’t coincide and hence the actress quit the film. In the movie, Arjun plays a dual role, Charanjeet and Karanjeet Singh. Recently, the first look poster of Arjun released and garnered appreciation from the audiences. “
Ileana D Cruz
” and
Athiya Shetty
share the screen space with Arjun Kapoor.
