Actor Varun Sharma Parts Ways with ‘Naam – To Live Is War’ Producers Over Scheduling Conflicts

Bollywood actor Varun Sharma has officially stepped away from the upcoming film "Naam – To Live Is War," according to a statement released by the production house. The decision was taken after both parties reviewed the shooting calendar and found that Sharma's existing commitments could not be reconciled with the film's schedule.

Sources close to the project said the separation was amicable, with Sharma’s representatives emphasizing that the actor remains interested in collaborating with the makers on future ventures once his current obligations are fulfilled. The producers, meanwhile, expressed confidence in proceeding with the film, noting that casting adjustments are underway.

The development adds a new variable to the production timeline of "Naam – To Live Is War," a drama that has generated buzz for its ensemble cast and thematic focus. While the film’s release date has not been altered, industry observers suggest that the recasting may influence promotional strategies ahead of its anticipated launch later this year.
