The report further revealed that the team is not on the same page on many issues and that "Shahid has become extremely brash and arrogant after the success of Kabir Singh." The actor has apparently turned very picky about the projects he wants to be associated with. Will Karan and Shashank accommodate Shahid's demand or they are on the lookout for another actor is not known yet but the buzz inside the industry circles hints that the Jab We Met actor will no longer be part of Yoddha.
Meanwhile, Shahid will next be seen in filmmaker duo Raj and DK’s upcoming web series for Amazon Prime which is an action thriller. The show will also feature Tamil superstar Vijay Sethupathi in a pivotal role. Shahid will reportedly kickstart the shoot for the web series from January. The untitled series will be shot at various locations in Mumbai and Goa.
