Vivek Oberoi to replace Sanjay Dutt!

If all goes well, the actor will star in the Bhatts' next, instead of Sanjubaba, who first agreed and then opted out of the film. 

On January 15, 2011, Mumbai Mirror told you how Sanjay Dutt had agreed to work for the Bhatts' next project. 

And considering Dutt's relationship with the filmmakers that go back a long way, this piece of news did not come so much as a surprise. 

However, what did surprise or rather shock us was when Dutt opted out of the project, citing
scheduling issues (Mumbai Mirror, April 20). Ever since then, the Bhatts and director Kunal Deshmukh have been on the look out for a prospective replacement. 

Now we hear that Vivek Oberoi, who does not share a very good relationship with Dutt, is being considered for the same. 

Though nothing is concrete yet, Oberoi has already been narrated the script a couple of days ago. Our source told us, "Since Dutt had some date issues and is no longer a part of the film, the Bhatts had no other option but to look for a replacement. They are keen to have Vivek on-board." 

When contacted, Mahesh Bhatt confirmed, "Vivek has met up with Mukesh and Kunal. He has been narrated the script. However, all of us have to mutually agree. Till then, it will be premature to say that Vivek is on-board. In our business, there is much between a cup and the lip. 

This has happened to us Sanjay Dutt didn't work out. But yes, Vivek had expressed his desire to be a part of the film and we would be happy to have him on-board." 

Bhatt added, "Today, Vivek will express his intentions about the film to Mukesh and Kunal as the project will demand much of his time." 

We just wonder whether the tensions that were put to rest between Dutt and Oberoi will resurface with the recent turn of events. 

According to past media reports, Oberoi had made vile comments about Manyaata to Dutt, during the filming of Shootout At Lokhandwala, which led to a testosterone feud between the two actors. Finally, in 2010, Dutt waved his white flag at Oberoi and invited him to a Mata Ki Chowki at his residence.
