Mohit Ahlawat who was to play the role of a cop in the Aamir Khan starrer ‘Ghajini’ has opted out the film. There were rumors that it was because of the hero himself but the actor has cleared the air and come out with the real reason.

The reason this drastic step was taken, Mohit claims, is because the director lied to him regarding his role.

The actor has clearly stated that it was not because of Aamir that he detached himself from the film. He has also said that Khan was very helpful to him. There seems to be some mis-information regarding the way Mohit’s character has shaped up in the Hindi version and what was narrated to him.

Mohit says, what he was told about his role in the film and what he has seen in a Southindian version of the same film are quite different. And when he took up this matter to the director Murugadoss, the director, did not have a convincing reply. The actor is also not happy with the speed at which the film is moving.

Though Mohit was told that his was a guest appearance, he seems not to be too happy seeing the way his character dies.

All Mohit has to say regarding his exit is that his character in the film did not seem right.
