Finally the Bachchans's can heave a sigh of relief as they have found a replacement for Bipasha Basu for their show, Unforgettable. Preity Zinta has replaced her and Akshay Kumar, who had opted out of the tour because of money issues, has also returned.
Our source says, “Bipasha Basu hiked her price for the Unforgettable tour after the success of Race. The organisers refused to give in and she quit the show leaving the Bachchans in a lurch. Bipasha felt that since Aishwarya Rai was getting Rs 1 crore for one show, she deserved a better deal too. In fact Bipasha confirmed to the media that she had walked out of the show because money was an issue. Before Bipasha, Lara Dutta had walked out of the show as she felt insecure that Aishwarya Rai would hog all the attention. Preity Zinta has come as a saviour at the last minute and will be doing the show. Even Akshay Kumar, who had walked out of the show for money issues, is back.”
When contacted, Amitabh Bachchan said, “I'm out of the country, but I am told by Wizkraft that Preity has been finalised for the show.”
Director Wizkraft International Entertainment, Sabbas Joseph, too confirmed and said, “We have redesigned the show and Preity Zinta has been signed up for it.” Speaking about the show, Joseph added, “I can't give you any more details apart from the fact that the show kicks off in July.”
The shows will be held in the US, UK and Canada.
