Leading Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut has once again surprised her fans by walking out of Irrfan Khan's 'Divine Lovers' movie.

Director Sai Kabir confirmed the news, saying that Kangana Ranaut is no more a part of the film. "Yes, it is true. Kangana is like a sister to me. Unfortunately, we couldn't work out the dates. She is busy and we wanted to start the film soon," Kabir told Times of India.

Kabir and Ranaut worked together in the 2014 crime thriller 'Revolver Rani,' which was a box office disaster. The failure of their first collaboration might be a reason behind Kangana's decision.

The 'Queen' actress has been replaced by 'Hate Story 3' fame Zarine Khan.

"She (Zarine) fit the bill perfectly as we wanted a girl with Pathani looks. She will undergo two months of training which will be overseen by Irrfan himself. The film is an adventure comedy and we plan to start shooting in September," the director confirmed.

Ranaut has already been in the news for her legal feud with actor Hrithik Roshan. The legal battle began when the actress referred to her alleged ex-lover Roshan as 'silly ex' in an interview few months back. The fight turned bitter when the duo slapped legal notices to each other, leveling serious allegations like blackmail and defamation.

The 28-year-old national award winning actress will be next seen in Vishal Bhardwaj's 'Rangoon.' She will also start working on her next projects including Hansal Mehta's 'Simran' and Ketan Mehta's 'Lakshmi Bai.'
