However, according to sources, Ayesha had quit the film long before Revathy's knee surgery. The film had come to a pause because of this.
But when Ayesha heard that Revathy was finalizing Sonal Chauhan to replace her, she came back and the two quarreled over the issue for a while until finally, Revathy agreed to keep Ayesha.
Sonal Chauhan confirms that she was approached with the film offer but declined because of her Kannada film dates.
