In her Instagram stories, Kashish wrote, “Many ppl are speculating whether I am doing The 50 or not. So, here it is. Yes, I had been approached, and we were in the final stages of negotiating payment. However, the dates of another project that I am doing came, and that’s clashing with The 50.”
She further added, “Thus, due to the lack of availability of dates, I will not be doing The 50. Thanks for all the love though.”
