Rekha’s exit from ‘Fitoor’

Katrina Kaif says even though it was nice working with veteran actress Rekha for ‘Fitoor’, she was sad when the actress walked out from the film.
Rekha, was replaced by Tabu in the Abhishek Kapoor directed romantic-drama, which stars Aditya Roy Kapoor in the lead.

“It (working with Rekha) was nice. But then she and the producers decided to part ways for their own reasons. That was very sad because I have known Rekha ji for a long time and we have our own independent equation together. That was the only sad thing. Every film has its destiny and you have to respect that,” Kaif told PTI.

The film, which is an adaptation of Charles Dickens’ classic novel “Great Expectations”, will have Tabu play the role of Miss Havisham as Begum.

The 32-year-old “Phantom” star will be seen opposite Kapoor for the first time, but she says, the duo recently got to know that they had worked together for an advertisement almost 11 years ago.
