Director Santram Verma not a part of 'Chandra Nandini'

Santram Verma

is no longer a part of a historical after issues with actor Rajat Tokas

Santram Verma, who until recently was directing '

Chandra Nandini

', is no longer a part of the historical show. Reason? Differences with lead actor Rajat Tokas. Incidentally, the two had worked together earlier on '

Jodha Akbar

'. Says a source, “They had creative differences while they were shooting for 'Jodha Akbar', a couple of years ago. And similar problems cropped up this time as well. Santram is meticulous and the production house’s first choice. However, after these issues with Rajat, a decision was taken to move him out of the show and Ranjan Singh replaced him.”

We contacted Rajat who denied having any problems with the director. He said, “There are no issues. Who says we had a problem during 'Jodha Akbar'? I don’t have anything to say on this.” Santram said, “I did direct the pilot for 'Chandra Nandini' but I am no longer associated with the project. Beyond this, I do not want to say anything. I have to focus on other shows.”
