The dispute stems from a clash between the actor and the makers following creative and financial disagreements. The ongoing issues have several key developments. Reportedly, Farhan Akhtar's production house (Excel Entertainment) reportedly halted the film's production and was seeking a significant Rs 40 crore in compensation for damages and extensive pre-production work that had already been completed.

Ranveer Singh contended that the makers had already started exploring alternative casting options, such as replacing him with Hrithik Roshan. Following bodies like the Producers Guild of India, a settlement began taking shape where Ranveer reportedly agreed to return his signing amount and resolve the financial differences.

The FWICE is currently reviewing the conflict to officially rule on the exit, the compensation terms and the film's future.
