Choreographer Clarifies Tamannaah Bhatia Not Considered for Dhurandhar Song
A choreographer named Vijay Ganguly explained that Tamannaah Bhatia was not chosen for a song in the movie Dhurandhar.

The makers wanted to keep the focus on the story, so they chose two other performers instead.
He also talked about how words can be used in a way that makes things seem more dramatic than they are, and he wanted to make sure people understand the real reason behind the decision.
