Reportedly, India's purported first extreme sports film titled "Crakk: Jeetegaa Toh Jiyegaa" has undergone a change in its female lead, with Nora Fatehi stepping in to replace Jacqueline Fernandez. Citing sources, The Hindustan Times conveyed that this alteration occurred due to T-series taking charge of the project. T-series had been actively advocating for Nora Fatehi to become their prominent figure for some time now. Alongside Nora, the film also features Arjun Rampal. The director of "Crakk," Aditya Datt, previously known for helming the 2005 romantic thriller "Aashiq Banaya Aapne," is at the film's helm. This venture marks Aditya's second collaboration with Vidyut, the first being the 2019 action thriller "Commando 3."
Significantly, "Crakk" was initially under the production of Vidyut Jammwal's Action Hero Films before being taken over by T-series. The movie was reportedly Jacqueline's initial project after her association with conman Suresh Chandrashekhar. However, the narrative takes a twist as Nora Fatehi also became entangled in the situation, initiating a defamation case against Jacqueline and various media outlets. This legal action stemmed from alleged defamatory content circulated by them regarding Nora's connection to Sukesh Chandrashekhar.
Nora Fatehi raised further contentions, asserting that Jacqueline and the media entities are collaborating to her detriment. Nora accused Jacqueline of subjecting her to unwarranted and prolonged harassment. Nora's statements to the media outlined the reasons behind her being listed as a witness in the ongoing case.
