Siddharth unhappy with Ayan's interference in Jagga Jasoos shoot
Ayan offered few solutions to Anurag, which didn't go down well with Siddharth, who made his displeasure evident.
Mumbai: Anurag Basu's long-in-the-making 'Jagga Jasoos' was speculated to have been hit hard after Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif's recent split. However director Ayan Mukerji, a friend of both Ranbir and Katrina, kept dropping by, to keep the atmosphere on the sets breezy. Recently, producer Siddharth Roy Kapur cleared the air and said that the shoot is progressing well despite hiccups.

Now, in an interesting turn of events, it has surfaced that Ayan offered some solutions to Anurag, which hasn’t gone down well with Siddharth. Apparently, it was Ayan's recommendation that they should shoot the Morocco portions in Mumbai itself as shooting away from home would be more stressful.
According to a report in DNA, Anurag thought that Ayan’s suggestion was a practical one and soon Morocco sets were constructed in Mumbai. However, when Siddharth happened to see some of the rushes of the Moroccan shoot, he was extremely disappointed. A furious Siddharth landed up on the sets and expressed his displeasure to Anurag. He not only blamed Ayan for the whole issue, he made it clear that he doesn't want Ayan to visit the sets or give any suggestions henceforth. The shooting was put on a hold and Katrina had to shoot on a day which was allotted to 'Baar Baar Dekho'.
Ranbir, who is going through a rough phase in his career, has a lot to prove with his upcoming film ‘Jagga Jasoos’. He is also gearing up for the release of Karan Johar's 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' also starring Anushka Sharma, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Fawad Khan.
