Kartik Aaryan has found himself in yet another controversy, as the Dhamaka star has opted out of Shah Rukh Khan’s production venture that was being directed by Ajay Bahl. Tentatively titled Goodbye Freddie, the movie also starred Katrina Kaif opposite Kartik. According to reports,  Kartik had creative issues and was not pleased with the script.  Red Chillies had not officially announced this venture, but it was scheduled to go on floors later this year. 

Kartik has, reportedly, returned the signing amount of Rs 2 crore as well with the makers now looking for his replacement. Earlier this year, Kartik Aaryan had hit headlines for opting out of Karan Johar produced ‘Dostana 2’. The actor had extensively shot for the film with Janhvi Kapoor but decided to exit the Collin DCunha directorial over creative differences. At present, Kartik has Anees Bazmee's horror comedy ‘Bhool Bhulaiya 2’ with Kiara Advani. Apart from this, he has also signed up for Rohit Dhawan's film, which is currently under pre-production. Kartik starrer ‘Dhamaka’, which is produced by Ronnie Screwwala, will have an OTT release soon.
