Huma Qureshi Upset Over Deleted Scene in Jolly LLB 2
Imagine you worked really hard on a drawing for a school project.
When the teacher looked at it, she cut out one of your best parts because it didn't fit the final picture.
That's how Huma Qureshi felt when a scene she filmed for the movie 'Jolly LLB 2' was cut.
She thought the scene was important because it showed her character telling the main actor, played by Akshay Kumar, what to do and guiding him.
After the scene was removed, she felt her part in the movie became very small and didn't have a clear story.
She told the director she was upset because she doesn't like playing characters that are just there to look nice without doing much.
The director tried to make her feel better by saying people liked her character anyway.
Huma Qureshi felt her role in 'Jolly LLB 2' became ornamental after a key scene was deleted.
The actress was upset, telling director Subhash Kapoor she felt she wasn't doing anything substantial in the film.
A powerful scene, which was featured in the trailer, showed her character guiding Akshay Kumar's character.
Qureshi stated she detests playing ornamental parts and felt her character lacked an arc due to the cut scene.
The director reportedly tried to console her by sharing positive audience feedback on her character.
