Shabana Azmi and Vinod Khanna was a hot pair of the 70’s. After their last film Muqqaddar Ka Badshah , the duo will be once again seen in Ajay Phansekar’s forthcoming film Mukti. It is believed that Shabana Azami has replaced Jaya Bachchan in this film.

Produced by K Sera Sera, Mukti is a hard hitting film based on a real life incident in Mumbai. Though it’s a small budget film it has a big and interesting star cast. It stars Sanjay Dutt, Vinod Khanna, Sunil Shetty, Ravi Kishen and Rimmi Sen. It is believed that Jaya Bachchan was supposed to play Sanjay Dutt’s mother in the film but just before the film went on floor Jaya Bachchan opted out of it.

A unit hand informs that Jaya Bachchan opted out because of date issues. Though she gave the excuse of date problems, Mrs Bachchan doesn't have any films in hand. Interestingly Jaya Bachchan is with her family for their Unforgettable World Tour. She walked out of the film in the last moment which left the makers in a fix. Luckily Shabana Azmi came to the rescue. Shabana will be seen in an interesting role.

It can be recalled that Vinod Khanna and Shabana gave films like Chor Sipahee, Shaque, Parvarish, Lahu Ke Do Rang , Khoon Ki Pukar and other films.
