Actor Himanshu Soni of Buddha fame, who was to make his Bollywood debut in Yeh Hai India, will no longer be the part of the project due to unprofessional and unethical behaviour, it was announced.
The film’s producer and director Lom Harsh said: “Himanshu is very unprofessional in his behaviour. Even for the muhurat [auspicious time] shot he did not reach the location on time.”
“His behaviour on set was also very disturbing and dominating. He had no respect for his co-stars and senior actors. But when we spoke to him on these issues, he threatened us [with] quitting the project.”
The makers have also decided to take legal action against the actor.
Harsh said: “The show must go on, we are ready with Himanshu’s replacement and [the person] shall be unveiled very soon, and shooting shall resume in another 24 hours.”
The film is about rediscovering the rich heritage of India.
The film is being directed by G K Yogesh and Lom Harsh and produced by Lom and Sandeep Choudhary under the banner of DLB Film Pvt Ltd.
