No Entry was a film that left us in tears because of the hysterical laughter that came with it. So, when the makers confirmed No Entry 2, fans were super thrilled. What led to the excitement to reach a notch higher was the reports of its casting. As per news, Varun Dhawan, Arjun Kapoor, and Diljit Dosanjh were roped in to headline the film. But hearts were shattered after reports of Chamkila star leaving the project started doing rounds. Now, director Anees Bazmee has spilled beans about his meeting with the singer-turned-actor.
Talking to News 18, Anees Bazmee spoke about the date issues with Diljit Dosanjh, which they are working out for No Entry 2. He also confessed to not being upset if things between them didn’t fall in place. The Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and 3 director further added that “this is not the first time that he has worked with an actor who wasn’t the initial choice of the film.”
Bazmee recalled his meeting with Diljit Dosanjh for the film, explaining what exactly happened during their discussion. The director, revealing about his second meeting with the Punjabi singer, which lasted 10 minutes, said that Dosanjh expressed his concerns over date issues.
“We were discussing his dates because there was a bit of back and forth. He told me that he was trying to work out his dates. Boney ji was also there,” informed Anees Bazmee. He also seemed unaffected by every development of the film becoming big news. Bazmee exclaimed that whatever has to happen will happen and that it will be good.

Talking about their first meeting, Anees revealed that they just sat down for 20 minutes, and the singer did not even listen to the full script. He understood the story and instantly agreed to do the film. Now, all eyes are on Anees as fans eagerly wait to hear an official announcement.
