Arshad out, Dutt in for Raju Hirani's P.K.

10 Jan 2013

Post the success of the Munnabhai series, it came as no surprise that director producer Rajkumar Hirani approached Arshad Warsi to play a part in his next venture P.K. However, now we learn that Arshad has opted out of the project citing date issues.

Apparently, Arshad who is busy with the sequel of Ishqiya said that since he has already allotted his dates for the shoot of that film, he would not be able to be a part of P.K. While on the other hand, Arshad's co-star from the Munnabhai series, Sanjay Dutt, has joined the cast of P.K. The actor has apparently been roped in to play a pivotal part in the film which is a satire on God and godmen.

Though this will be the third film Hirani and Dutt will be seen working together on, it will be the first time Dutt will be sharing screen space with Aamir Khan.

P.K. also stars Anushka Sharma and Sushant Singh Rajput.
