"Unfortunately, I won't be part of the dream, but I am, and will always be there for them to realise their dream," Rahul Dholakia said in a statement
The Mithali Raj biopic Shabaash Mithu, starring actress Taapsee Pannu, has a new director. The film was being directed by Rahul Dholakia, who issued a statement on Tuesday that will no longer be part of the team because of scheduling issues. "I won't be directing the fabulous script written by Priya Aven and conceived by Ajit Andhare," wrote Mr Dholakia in a statement and added: "Unfortunately, I won't be part of the dream, but I am, and will always be there for them to realise their dream. COVID messed up everyone's schedules, mine was no different. Ajit has a vision and a plan for the film and the way to realise it. I wish him and the team the very best for it." Taking over from Rahul Dholakia is Bengali filmmaker Srijit Mukherji, who will now be directing the Mithali Raj biopic titled Shabaash Mithu. Good luck #ShabaashMithu !!
