Reports that Hrithik Roshan has 'opted out' of Nikhil Advani’s next film titled Baazaar has the director baffled.
It was reported that Hrithik lost confidence in Nikhil’s abilities after his two back-to-back flops, Hero and Katti Batti.
But Nikhil has a different story to tell: "Hrithik was never confirmed for Baazaar. We only had an hour-long conversation about the film. I am still completing the final draft."
When prodded to describe the film, Nikhil says, "It has to do with power, obsession, a tumultuous relationship between two men and the stock market."
Nikhil still seems helpless about his latest flops.
"It’s not as if I planned to have two releases in a week," he says. "Hero would have been released earlier but it got delayed for various reasons. Meanwhile, I started Katti Batti, which was finished without delays. So it’s just a coincidence that the two films ?came? together."
