It is being said that Muzammil Ibrahim has been dumped from Vikram Bhatt's Bhaag Johnny.

According to the buzz, the actor was shown the door due to his differences with director Deepak Tijori.

Leave!

A source reveals, "From day one, Muzammil had issues with the script, the styling of his character and the dialogues. He constantly asked the director to make changes. A miffed Deepak called for a meeting with the actor and producer Vikram.

The meeting turned out to be argumentative and ended up with a verbal spat between the actor and director. The newcomer apparently got aggressive and even abused Deepak. And that's when Vikram asked Muzzamil to leave."

Bhatt and Tijori are now looking for a replacement. It is learnt that Neil Nitin Mukesh and Shreyas Talpade were approached but both refused. Tijori however maintains, "That's a joke.

Muzammil is my good friend and will always remain one."But when asked if Muzammil was dropped from the project, Tijori remained non-committal.
Bhatt remained unavailable for comment.
