Mumbai, July 1 (IANS) A unconfirmed report that had gone viral on Wednesday suggesting Karan Johar has been dropped as co-producer of the much -hyped Akshay Kumar-starrer "Sooryavanshi" has been refuted as fake news by the makers.
Late on Wednesday, social media was abuzz with reports that the film's director Rohit Shetty and lead star Akshay Kumar have dropped Johar's Dharma Productions and its share from the film, further claiming that they had even returned Johar's investment in the film.
