Shilpa Shetty who had launched her production house Essential Sports and Media Pvt Ltd. a couple of years back, went on floor with their maiden production venture Diskkiyaaoon in early 2012. However the latest is that Sanjay Dutt who was initially supposed to play an extended cameo in the film has opted out of the project citing date issues.
Apparently, Dutt who is a close pal and business associate of Shilpa and husband Raj Kundra, had agreed to do the cameo but has since committed dates to Raju Hirani's P.K. Concerned over delaying Shilpa's project, Dutt has opted out of it.
Confirming the development, Dutt's spokesperson says that since Sanju has already allotted bulk dates to Hirani for P.K and to T.P. Agarwal for his film, his packed schedule fails to accommodate Shilpa's project. Not wanting her film to suffer due to the delays, Dutt has opted out.

As we see rescue operations post a bombing attack being carried out in slow motion, the soundtrack goes almost inert in a show of frozen protest…And you know there and then that Aazaan has something out-of-the-ordinary to offer to the action genre.
Tackling global terrorism and Islamic isolation as seen through the eyes of a tormented Muslim secret agent, Aazaan heads towards its flaming phases of flash-points with the least amount of fuss or ostentation. The narrative knows all the sign posts.
The screenplay by Shubra Swaroop is gritty and gripping, ensuring that every episode stays a step ahead of the audiences’ expectations.
