Hydari, on her part, took to her social media pages and announced that she has backed out of the project. The actor wrote that the coronavirus pandemic has brought the world, including the Indian film industry to a standstill and while work has slowly started, there have been delays and schedules are being reassessed.
She wrote that feels a responsibility towards finishing projects she had already begun shooting for without causing any delays to the ones yet to start.

She further wished the director, Deenadayal, Sethupathi and the entire team of Tughlaq Durbar the very best for the project.
