Vikas Bahl barred from post-production of Hrithik Roshan's Super 30 after harassment claims
Vikas Bahl is no longer working on Hrithik Roshan's upcoming film Super 30.
The filmmaker has been barred from overseeing the editing of the film and the movie is now on hold till the producers find someone suitable to take over the last leg of the film.
A source tells Mid Day, "Vikas is not doing Super 30 at all. Producers Sajid Nadiadwala and Reliance Entertainment are looking for someone able, who can supervise the post-production including the editing, VFX and CGI. They are also planning to rope in a few professionals who will take charge of the film hereon."
Hrithik Roshan, who will be playing the lead in Super 30 as a math whiz, is among many Bollywood celebs who have taken a stand against working with alleged abusers and has urged his producers to also "take a harsh stand if need be."
Adds the source, "Chances are that the film's release might get pushed. However, Nadiadwala is judiciously distributing time between his two productions — Housefull 4 and Super 30 — to ensure the films meet their deadlines. Bahl will also not be a part of the promotions and has been asked not to make any comments related to the film."
