During the promotion of the horror film, the actress opened up about being replaced in the sequel to her comedy-drama film Dream Girl (2019) by Ananya Panday.
Nushrratt expressed dismay over the fact that while all cast members, including those in supporting roles, returned for the sequel in 2023, she was dropped. Writer-director Raaj Shaandilyaa and Nushrratt have worked together on Dream Girl and Janhit Mein Jaari. However, when the sequel of Dream Girl was announced, Ananya replaced the leading actress from the first installment.
About this, Nushrratt said, "It hurt me even more when I wasn't part of my own sequel. Every other actor was the same except the girl, which I felt was not cool."

What do I say? Why not me? It is because they don't want me. It's the truth of it. Eventually, it's a choice someone is making.
I cannot question your choice. The fight I can fight is by not giving up on myself. It's by saying I will work with people who want to work with me.
I want to work with people who appreciate my presence."

"I was a part of Dream Girl 1 and I love that whole team.
I terribly miss working with them. But why they didn't cast me in Dream Girl 2, I think only they can answer. I don't know, there is no logic and there is no answer to it.
But why didn't they cast me? I am a human being, so of course it hurts. And of course it feels unfair. But I get it, it is their decision.
Cool, no problem," she had shared. Get Current Updates on India News , Entertainment News along with Latest News and Top Headlines from India and around the world. Published April 12th 2025, 17:03 IST.
