However, later on the casting team and the crew members felt that Sonakshi and Shahid did not complement each other as an on-screen couple! Some screen tests for Sonakshi were also arranged but Sonakshi has never made any statements about her not being a part of Mausam.
Buzz is that Sonakshi Sinha was mighty upset about the fact that she was not even informed that Sonam Kapoor has been cast as the female lead; and she came across this information only through the media reports! Another buzz is that Shahid Kapoor has now expressed his eagerness to work with Sonakshi; but the latter has given a cold response since she is not too keen to work with Shahid after that snub from the Kapoors! Shahid Kapoor’s Mausam, which is set for a September 16 release, is already capturing the limelight owing to all the controversies surrounding the film!
Already a lot has been spoken about the postponement of Mausam’s release dates due to the post production work and delay in the shooting schedule as a consequence of Sonam Kapoor’s ill health! Well, we hope Sonakshi and Shahid draw inspiration from Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Karan Johar and settle their differences!
