Filmfare is back with another exclusive update. This time, we have some scoop on Ragini MMS 3. The makers were keen on casting Nora Fatehi in the leading role, but recent speculations suggested that the actress had parted ways, with the movie’s team looking for another face. Now, we have come to know about the reason behind Nora’s exit and the actress who is being offered the leading role.

Our source revealed, “A recent wave of reports has been speculating about Nora Fatehi’s association with Ragini MMS 3. Nora was, in fact, the first choice for Balaji, with the makers keen to sign her given her global popularity and recent music chartbusters like Tetema along with her international collaborations. She has been consistently making waves both in India and on the global stage.”

Adding further, our source has shared that the exit is majorly due to scheduling issues. The source added, “However, with a packed calendar and multiple projects running parallel — including a major international shoot in Los Angeles that’s still under wraps — Nora had to step away from the project.”

But who is going to be cast as the lead? Our source has revealed that it is none other than Tamannaah Bhatia. “Tamannaah has now been brought on board, with her current focus resting firmly on Bollywood,” they added. It would be interesting to note if Tamannaah is confirmed as the final choice by the makers.
