Director Koratala Siva Talks About Trimming Kajal Aggarwal's Role In Acharya

Hyderabad, April 25 - Telugu movie, Acharya is all set to hit screens on April 28. The movie stars megastar Chiranjeevi in the title role along with Ram Charan, Pooja Hegde, and Sonu Sood in key roles. Directed by Koratala Siva, the action drama movie was also supposed to feature actress Kajal Aggarwal in a key role, but her role has now been chopped off.

Earlier, there were reports that Kajal's role was chopped off because she opted out of the movie due to her pregnancy. Director Korala Siva, however, has now revealed that Kajal's role was trimmed because it was not fitting with the premise of the movie because it was not concluded well.



"Initially, I designed a very funny character for Kajal Aggarwal in Acharya and we also shot her portions for 3-4 days. But when I watched the rushes, her role was not really fitting with the flow of the movie, and also I was unable to conclude her role properly in the story, so I decided to trim her character and informed the same to her", the director said during a media interaction for Acharya promotions.

Koratala Siva further said that the actress understood her concern and took the decision in a positive way. He also said that Kajal will be seen in the Lahe Lahe song with megastar Chiranjeevi. "Watch the film to see how we fit her in to the song", he added.

Kajal Aggarwala, meanwhile, is enjoying her motherhood after she recently gave birth to her first child, named Neil. On the work front, Kajal will next be seen in Tamil movies, Karungaapiyam, and Ghosty, apart from the Bollywood film, Uma.
