Sanjay Dutt fans will be disappointed to know that the actor has bid adieu to the upcoming comedy film Welcome To The Jungle.
A source close to the project told Bollywood Hungama that Dutt cited scheduling conflicts as the reason for his departure.
“Sanjay Dutt has cited date issues for his exit. He has conveyed all the issues to his dear friend Akshay Kumar, who took the points into account and holds no bad blood,” the source revealed.

Sanjay Dutt Wasn’t Happy With Unplanned & Disorganised Execution Of Welcome To The Jungle
Reportedly, Dutt felt that the filming of Welcome To The Jungle was disorganised, with frequent script changes disrupting his shooting schedule. Consequently, he opted to part ways with the project.
Now, there seems to be a dilemma for the filmmakers regarding the footage already shot featuring Dutt. “Sanjay Dutt has shot for some funny portions of Welcome To The Jungle in the first schedule and the makers are tempted to resume it and credit Sanjay Dutt for a guest appearance,” the source disclosed.
Additionally, the team is brainstorming a quirky storyline to incorporate Dutt’s absence after the initial scenes.
