Well, this picture of the duo will certainly end all the rumours related to the special item number.
While the picture has generated a lot of intrigue among fans, certain others wished Shraddha was still a part of the song.
Reportedly, the makers were in talks with Shraddha Kapoor for the special song and was almost locked. But, higher remuneration and date availability of the Stree 2 actress forced the makers to look for other options. The buzz also suggests that Shraddha demanded the same amount that Samantha took home for Oo Antava. But, the makers refused to pay her that much amount.
