After playing a cameo in Dharma Production's Kurbaan, Dia Mirza has now refused to play a cameo in the banner's next I Hate Love Stories directed by debutant Punit Malhotra.
If sources are to be believed Dia didn't want to play a cameo in the movie although she liked the script.
A source reveals, "The movie stars Sonam Kapoor opposite Sammir Dattani with Imran Khan in the parallel lead.
The script required a lady actress opposite Imran and Punit zeroed down on Dia Mirza as she aptly suited the role. The director had a meet with Dia and everything was finalised.
But when Punit was on his recce to New Zealand, Dia sent him a letter where she mentioned that she wouldn't be able to be a part of the movie as she is busy with other commitments."
The source continues, "Punit is keen to have Dia on board the project and hasn't found a replacement. The recording and script reading for the other actors have started but the search for Dia's replacement is on."
A source close to Dia reveals, "She had refused to do the film when offered to her, so there was no question of her opting out."
