A day after the cast of 'Aankhen 2' was announced, Ileana D&rsquo;Cruz has slammed the makers for announcing her name when she had turned down the film. A unit member, however, claims&nbsp;that the actress had verbally committed to be part of the project starring Amitabh Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Arjun Rampal, Arshad Warsi and South actress Regina Cassandra.

Doshi says, &ldquo;Mr Bachchan is the face of my franchise and I don&rsquo;t want to stoke any controversy. Fact is Ileana had, in principle, agreed to do the film. Now, if she doesn&rsquo;t wish to take it up, that&rsquo;s okay. I wish her all the best.&rdquo;
The sequel to the 2002 heist thriller is set to go on floors next month and will clash with Golmaal 4 on Diwali 2017.
