So what has made Priyanka delay the project? A source close to the film told, "Priyanka and Madhur had a meeting before she left to shoot the on-going schedule of the Mary Kom biopic. She told Madhur that she was bowled over by the script and definitely wants to be a part of the project, but there was a hitch."

Priyanka informed Madhur that she can only take up the role after she is done with Omung Kumar's Mary Kom and Zoya Akhtar's Dil Dhadakne Do. It will take her around seven months to wrap up the both the films.

"Priyanka wants do Madamji in one go since it is a challenging role. She doesn't want any distraction," the source added.
