New Delhi: The rumour mills have been abuzz with the news that Hrithik Roshan pulled out of `Shuddhi` due to various reasons. But the gossip hit the roof when a leading daily claimed that the `Krishh` star has left the project as he was not getting a higher percentage of profits. However Karan Johar has put a rest to the allegations saying that the story is “baseless, untrue and completely uninformed”. He posted on his Twitter account:

Article insinuating that Hrithik asked for a large percentage of profit for #Shuddhi is baseless,untrue and completely uninformed...

Even though the real reason for the actor to have pulled out of the project is unsure, at least there seems to be little rift in the relation of Karan and Hrithik. Various theories surfaced after Hrithik's departure from the project. Starting from health issues, to date problems to the recent divorce of the Roshan couple.
