Recently, Karan Johar had admitted that there might be a change in the cast of his film ‘Shuddhi’. He had said that the lead actress, Kareena might be replaced by someone else as the film is getting postponed again and again. 

However, now it seems like he has to find another male lead for the film as well. Hrithik Roshan, who was supposed to be the lead actor of the film, has opted out of the movie. The actor has given an official statement in which he confirmed that he is no more a part of ‘Shuddhi’.

The actor says, "Karan Malhotra and I have decided to unite in the most ambitious way post ‘Shuddhi’. For now, I cannot allow a vision like ‘Shuddhi’ to stagnate any further. I had the finest experience as an actor working with Karan Malhotra in ‘Agneepath’ and I'm sure that my dear Karans, Karan Johar and Karan Malhotra, are going to go beyond with this one. ‘Shuddhi’ remains a part of me in spirit and I am sure it will be a landmark film in our cinema. I wish them all the best." 

If the sources are to be believed, after the brain surgery, Hrithik is cautious of taking up a film like ‘Shuddhi’ which demands a finest level of fitness and some hard-hitting action scenes. 

We are sure that with this news, fans of Hrithik and Kareena, who wanted to see them together, will be disappointed.
