The makers of Chehre have rigorously begun hunting for someone who could replace Kriti Kharbanda. After the actress marked an exit from the Amitabh Bachchan and Emraan Hashmi starrer, the makers have been meeting several actresses to finalise on one face.
While yesterday, we exclusively revealed to you that they are in talks with Sacred Games actress Elnaaz Nourouzi, now we have come across 3 more popular names from the world of TV.
Firstly, it was Krystle Dsouza who visited producer Anand Pandit on Monday around 9pm and the two had a discussion at the latter’s office for over an hour. Next evening at 4 pm, Mouni Roy met the producer and the two also had a chat around the casting. And finally, the same evening after 6 pm, Ankita Lokhande met the producer to talk about the role, for which Kriti Kharbanda had earlier shot for just 2 days and opted out.
For those who don’t know why Kriti Kharbandra left the film, SpotboyE.com dug the real reason and told you that the actress was not comfortable shooting for an intimate scene that also involved her to lock lips. Unfortunately, reports stated that it were her starry tantrums that cost her the film, but that wasn’t the case as the actress had her reservations around the particular scene and we think it’s absolutely okay to not do something that you’re not comfy with.

However, Anand Pandit tweeted out saying that they parted ways on mutual terms, "In the light of recent media reports, we wish to clarify that @kriti_official and @apmpictures have mutually agreed to part ways on a cordial and professional note. We wish her success in all her future endeavours."
