Actor Nushrratt Bharuccha recently spoke about how “hurt” she felt when she was replaced by Ananya Panday in the sequel of Dream Girl (2019. Nushrratt played the love interest of Ayushmann’s character in the first film.

In an interview with Nayandeep Rakshit, Nushrratt said, “It hurt me even more when I was not part of my own sequel also, when every other actor was the same except the girl, which I felt was, not cool naa, guys? Just not cool. But, theek hai, no problem.”

The Chhorii 2 actor added that she didn’t fight the makers of Dream Girl 2 (2023) because their minds were made up. “I can’t fight something I know is not going to change in any way; what do I fight? What am I going to say? ‘Why not me?’ They’ll say, ‘because we don’t want you.’ That’s the truth of it; it ends there. Eventually, it’s the choice somebody’s making, right? I cannot question your choice,” she said.

She added that the only thing she can do is not give up on herself. “It’s by saying I’ll work with people who want to work with me,” she added.

Nushrratt was recently seen in the horror film Chhorii 2 alongside Soha Ali Khan.
