Bollywood actor Farhan Akhtar had big plans for his 2021 film Jee Le Zaraa, starring Katrina Kaif, Alia Bhatt, and Priyanka Chopra. However, two years of delays have taken a toll on the project. In a recent interview, Farhan revealed the stress and insecurities he faced as the film's production dates kept shifting. Farhan had put his acting career on hold to focus on directing Jee Le Zaraa. He turned down other acting roles to concentrate on the project, but the delays continued. As the months went by, Farhan's insecurities grew. He began to worry that people would doubt his directing skills after a 12-year hiatus. "It was a stressful period," Farhan said. "I thought I was wasting time, and before I knew it, two and a half years had gone by." He also confessed to struggling with personal insecurities, fearing that others might think he had lost his touch. Jee Le Zaraa was initially touted as a light-hearted road-trip film about female friendships and self-discovery. However, reports of scheduling conflicts between the lead actresses have raised concerns about the project's future. Farhan has hinted that the cast may no longer be involved, but he remains optimistic about the film's prospects. Meanwhile, Farhan is currently promoting his latest film, 120 Bahadur, a historical war drama that showcases his acting skills. He is also set to begin work on Don 3 in 2026, starring Ranveer Singh in the lead role. Farhan's experience with Jee Le Zaraa serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by filmmakers in the industry. Despite the setbacks, Farhan remains committed to bringing his vision to life, and fans can only hope that Jee Le Zaraa will eventually make it to the big screen.
