Dongri to Dubai: Dawood finds Haseena at eleventh hour

After over a 10-month wait, Avinash Tiwary slipped into the role of Dawood Ibrahim again as the unit of Dongri to Dubai resumed work at the Madh Island set.

But with the pandemic having played havoc with the schedules of many actors, the cast of the Shujaat Saudagar-directed web series has undergone a crucial change. It is heard that Angira Dhar, who was to play Dawood’s sister Haseena Parkar, has bowed out of the project.


“Angira has to report to the set of Ajay Devgn’s directorial venture Mayday now. Since the makers of Dongri to Dubai required the same dates, the actor, after much deliberation, decided to let go of the series,” reveals a source.

Kritika Kamra, who was recently seen in a pivotal role in Amazon Prime Video’s Tandav, has been brought on board the underworld drama that is based on Hussain Zaidi’s book of the same name. The source adds, “After a fresh set of auditions, the makers zeroed in on Kritika. It’s an important character that influences the proceedings, and demands a strong performer.”
