Jee Le Zaraa was announced with a stellar cast – Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt in the lead.
And now, we hear that the female road trip movie will be reportedly made with a new star cast.
If this Bollywood Hungama report is to be believed, director Farhan Akhtar has put the movie on the backburner as the three leading ladies – PeeCee, Katrina and Alia – are unable to commit their dates for the shooting.
“Priyanka Chopra was not able to commit the dates to shoot in 2023 due to her Hollywood commitments and asked Farhan if they could shoot for Jee Le Zaraa in 2024. While Farhan was fine with it, Alia Bhatt is already committed to shooting for Ramayana and Baiju Bawra in 2024. Given that the two films are going to be taxing, she couldn’t align her date for next year. When nothing fell in place, Farhan decided to delay the film until the right time.”

While Priyanka is currently busy shooting for her next Hollywood project, Alia is gearing up for the release of her next, Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. Meanwhile, Katrina will next be seen in Sriram Raghavan’s Merry Christmas.
“Much like Alia, Katrina also had plans in life and after a point was not able to commit to shoot for the film much in advance. The dates kept getting changed and finally, Farhan had no option but put it on the back burner. At this point of time, Jee Le Zaraa is not happening, at least with the same cast and we need to see if the makers revamp it at a later stage.”

Earlier, it was reported that Farhan has joined Aamir Khan in the Hindi remake of Spanish movie Camepones.
