This has led to speculation if she has been booted out of Anand Pandit's production. In 2019, she had shared the first look of the film. It is said that she bagged the project as late beau Sushant Singh Rajput was close to Jafry. The writer-director was planning a film with SSR. Jafry had extended support to Chakraborty and reportedly said she deserves a ‘fair trial'.

Chehre, starring Amitabh Bachchan with Rhea Chakraborty and Emraan Haashmi, has been confirmed for theatrical release on April 30. Big B tweeted the first poster of the film, where it seems that he is interrogating Emraan while the others such as Annu Kapoor and Krystle D'souza look on nervously.
