I Am Very Sensitive About #Metoo: Ajay on Tanushree Dutta’s Remark

The Quint  

The actor adds that about the question of having worked with Mr Alok Nath in my upcoming film De De Pyar De, he wants to put certain things in perspective. The said portions were shot over 40 days across various sets and an outdoor location with over 10 actors. It would be near impossible to get all the dates and combinations of the several actors in the film and attempt a re-shoot with some other actor replacing Mr Nath. Not to forget, I could not have brought the entire combination of actors back or put up sets again for a 40-day re-shoot because this would mean doubling the budget, which again wasn't my call to make.
