It had to happen. Once Deepika Padukone signed on Ayan Mukerji's Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani with her ex-boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor, everything else had to take a backseat. The first casualty seems to be Abbas Mustan's Race 2, where she is teamed opposite Saif Ali Khan.
Our source informs, "Race 2 is meant to be shot between January 2012 and June 2012. Saif, John Abraham (the baddie), Anil Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha have allotted dates accordingly. However, Deepika is not able to accommodate this film now as the dates of Race 2 and YJHD are clashing."
Deepika was asked to make a choice and she chose Ranbir (naturally) over Saif. Reports suggest that producer Ramesh Taurani is livid with Deepika. Her last-minute ditch may leave the project in limbo.
Since it is a multi-starrer with big names involved, putting the project together with all their dates itself has taken a while. Now, Deepika's exit may just jeopardise it. Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and Anushka Sharma don't have dates for this project either.
Deepika's spokesperson said, "It's still not final whether Deepika will quit Race 2. Her dates are being worked out."
