Who could say no to Rajinikanth?

At least Deepika Padukone can’t!

Earlier, when Deepika was approached for Rajini’s Rana, she walked out of Housefull II to spare dates for the Southern Superstar. Now, Deepika has apparently ditched another Bollywood film Race II and yet again it is to star opposite Superstar Rajinikanth.

What a royal snub, Deepika!

It is said that Deepika Padukone has opted out of Race II to give dates to Rajinikanth’s upcoming film Kochadaiyaan, but kept the makers of Race II in the dark about the real reason for not working with them. However, this has gone down well neither with Ramesh Taurani, the producer or the film crew of Race II who are quite upset with Deepika Padukone.

“Deepika's manager Anirban said that she has bagged a big Hollywood film and it is a lifetime opportunity for her. So we had to let her go,” said Taurani.

But sources claim that it was later found out that the actress opted out for the Rajnikanth film and not for any Hollywood film. Apparently, this sudden exit of Deepika has caused a lot of trouble for the makers and that also includes monetary losses.

In fact, Deepika Padukone had even shot for two days for Race II. But reportedly she wasn’t happy with the slow progress of the film.

According to a source, who is close to Deepika, the actress didn’t leave Race II because of Rajinikanth’s film. She was just waiting for Race II to wrap up soon, as her dates for December and January were already wasted due to delay. Now, the makers of Race II required Deepika’s new dates because of Sanjay Dutt, who was recently roped in for the action thriller. And that created problem for Deepika as she couldn’t allot fresh dates to the film because of her prior commitments.

Whatever be the reason, producer Ramesh Taurani of Tips is not in a mood to take this lightly. Last it was heard that Taurani is lodging a complaint against Deepika Padukone with the Cine & TV Artistes’ Association (CINTAA).

Deepika trumped the other favourite Katrina Kaif to romance Rajinikanth in Kochadaiyaan.
