As per significant reports, Bollywood star Tripti Dimri is no longer a star in the much-anticipated film Aashiqui 3: however, the actual reason regarding the above-mentioned update is still under the wrap: however, there are some gossip regarding the same outside.
Lately, Mid-Day reported that Triptii was no longer going to star in Aashiqui 3. “Triptii was excited to headline the romance, but that’s not going to happen now. Aashiqui 3 is undergoing a [title]-related dispute. So, it has been postponed indefinitely," a source was quoted as saying. The report implied that Triptii had left the film voluntarily due to the delay in shoot.
However, an industry source now tells us that it was the makers of Aashiqui 3 who opted not to have the actor after her initial look test shot. The source says, "The fundamental requirement to be the heroine of Aashiqui 3 is innocence reflecting through, and as observed by the team behind the film, Triptii Dimri with her recent films has become too exposed to be cast in this romantic film which demands purity in demeanour from the female lead."
The source adds that the change in Triptii's image post-animal is one of the reasons why the makers feel she does not fit the bill. "Aashiqui is a legendary, soulful love story and the makers do not see Tripti fitting the parameters. After Animal, there has been no buzz around her. More so, her solo standing at the box office hasn’t proven profitable with her recent films," the source added.
However, neither Triptii nor the makers have released an official statement on the matter. Hence, it is hard to ascertain which account is true or if the truth lies somewhere in between.
