YAHOO, which went on the sets early last year, and should've been complete and ready for release if it wasn't for Shahid. After svelte Jiah Khan was replaced by bubbly and vivacious Genelia D'Souza, in Ken Ghosh's YAHOO, it was decided that since they'd already shot for fifty-odd days with the NISHABD actress, they'd use long shots and patch-up work to save on cost. But that was not acceptable to leading man Shahid Kapur, known for his penchant for perfection. It is heard that the dancing icon wants to scrap the portions with Jiah and re shoot them with Genelia.It was earlier heard, that the hot hunk had Jiah removed in what was meant to be the last shooting schedule. Then after much brainstorming, Genelia was roped in and now, it looks like further delays. It was decided that the director would try to cheat as many scenes as possible with close-ups and wide shots to save as much of the film as we could. But now after shooting for a week, Shahid has apparently made it clear that he wants the film re-shot, without any compromise.
Now the cost of the film has nearly doubled and the only reason the producers are putting up with their star's diktats is apparently because Shahid is also doing KAMINEY with them, which they expect to be the runaway hit of the year. Hope the pains to re-shoot are worth making the producers cheer YAHOO!
