Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar's latest movie The Lady Killer has been in the news for an incomplete film released at the box office with disastrous returns. The movie has been panned for the choppy final cut, and now the director of the film has opened up about releasing the film incomplete. 

Ajay Bahl, the director of The Ladykiller, commented On Tried and Refused Productions movie review video. And he revealed that the movie is incomplete, and discussed what were the portions that were never shown, "To confirm, yes the movie is incomplete. 30 pages of the 117-page screenplay were never shot. A huge number of connecting scenes, Arjun and Bhumi’s entire romance,  Bhumi’s dependence on alcohol, Ajrun’s sense of being trapped and losing everything and having to run from town, his sense of total despair, all these psychological beats are missing."

Ajay further added, "So yes it's no surprise that the film feels choppy and disjointed. and one finds it hard to connect with the characters. NOW about the rumours floating out here, As director, it was extremely painful to shoot  The Ladykiller but absolutely not because of the actors, Arjun and Bhumi were sheer joy to work with. They gave their heart and soul to the film, The problem lied elsewhere but that is another story."
