Director Ajay Bahl on the film's completion status
In a statement, he said that his previous statement was a take on baseless rumours circulating about the film's completion status. However, it was misinterpreted by others. He said, "It’s a humorous take on a baseless rumour circulating about the film's completion status. I understand that humour and sarcasm can sometimes be misinterpreted. I want to emphasize that Lady Killer is a complete film which has been released for audiences and I am immensely proud of this project. I am grateful for the hard work and dedication of everyone involved in bringing this film to fruition.’’
He added that the entire team of The Lady Killer, including director Ajay Bahl and the dedicated crew, have poured their hearts and souls into this project, ensuring its completion and subsequent release.
What did Ajay Bahl say earlier?
The director took to the comment section of a YouTube channel and said that the film is "incomplete" and revealed why the film feels "choppy and disjointed".
He wrote, “To confirm, yes the movie is incomplete. 30 pages of the 117 page screenplay were never shot. A huge number of connecting scenes, Arjun and Bhumi’s entire romance, Bhumi’s dependence on alcohol, Ajrun’s sense of being trapped and losing everything and having to run from town, his sense of total despair, all these psychological beats are missing. So yes, it's no surprise that the film feels choppy and disjointed and one finds it hard to connect with the characters."
The Lady Killer starred Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar in the lead roles. The film opened to mixed reviews and reportedly bombed at the box office.
