The shooting of 'Kizie Aur Manny' has been put on hold. The movie - a Hindi remake of Hollywood movie 'Fault In Our Stars' - features Sushant Singh Rajput and newcomer Sanjana Sanghi.
In the wake of the #MeToo movement in India, Chhabra was reportedly accused of misbehaving with two anonymous aspiring actresses. However, the director has denied the allegations.
