Fans were excited to see a sequel to the blockbuster Aankhen starring Arjun Rampal, Akshay Kumar and Amitabh Bachchan. However after considerable amounts of delays in beginning the sequel, the latter who was also to be the lead in the sequel has opted out. The other lead Sidharth Malhotra has apparently also walked out citing similar lack of dates and his commitments to other projects. The Marjaavaan actor is currently busy with the film Mission Majnu while the Badla star has begun shooting for Goodbye. Incidentally both these films also star South actress Rashmika Mandanna as the leading lady. 


As per new reports Anil Kapoor and Rana Daggubati have been approached to take the place of Big B and the Student Of The Year actor for Aankhen 2. The movie is to be shot in parts of Europe and UK.
