Vijay Ganguly and Tamannaah Bhatia
Choreographer Vijay Ganguly has cleared the air around his recent statement about Tamannaah Bhatia being rejected by director Aditya Dhar for the Shararat song from Dhurandhar. The choreographer took to his social media to clarify that the actress was never under consideration for the part.
Vijay penned a long note on his Instagram stories, wherein he wrote, “To clarify: Tamannaah Bhatia was never under consideration because her star power is so significant it might have overwhelmed the specific needs of this scene. In Dhurandhar, the music is woven into a high-stakes moment where the tension is key. The makers opted for two performers to keep the focus on the story’s progression. This choice was about protecting the film’s atmosphere and ensuring the narrative remains the hero of the sequence."
