Shahid Kapoor replaced by Anil Kapoor in Vikramaditya Motwane's AK vs SK?

A few years ago, director Vikramaditya Motwane announced his directorial venture, which was reportedly titled AK vs SK. The movie was supposed to feature Shahid Kapoor and Anurag Kashyap in the lead. But due to unknown reasons, Shahid Kapoor walked out of the film, which led to media speculating the shelving of the film. But years later, a new media report revealed that Shahid Kapoor has been replaced by Anil Kapoor, who will play the lead alongside Kashyap. With the change in the cast, the makers have reportedly planned to change the title of the film. The new title of the film seems to be AK vs AK.
