It looks like designer Aki Narula has taken on more than he can drape. The B-Town stylist and designer of late has been unable to complete his projects leaving filmmakers and stars to look for other options some even days before shooting starts. <img alt="Ranbir Kapoor" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/aug/Ranbir-Kapoor_7.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 649px; " /> For instance, as Aki is close to Ranbir Kapoor, he was asked to design the star for his film with Anurag Basu. But a source says, &ldquo;He couldn&rsquo;t complete the film, though he did some styling for Ranbir. But for his co-star Ileana D&rsquo;Cruz he couldn&rsquo;t do anything. <img alt="Aki Narula" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/aug/Aki-Narula_1.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 457px; " /> When asked about it Basu says, &ldquo;Aki did the clothes for Ranbir, but couldn&rsquo;t do it for Ileana. There were times when he couldn&rsquo;t be on the sets or the outfits were not ready. We later brought in Shefali to design for Ileana. She had worked with me in my earlier project Life In A Metro as well. My wife Tani and I also helped with the clothes as part of film has a Bengali setting so it is a familiar territory for us.&rdquo; Buzz is that Aki was also roped in for Milan Luthria&rsquo;s upcoming sequel, but later a different designer was approached just days before a shoot. When asked to comment, Aki maintained, &ldquo;I have just come back from Kolkata as my dad had some health issues. We&rsquo;ll talk about this a little later.&rdquo; Aki has dressed up the stars for films like Bunty aur Babli, Bluffmaster, Bachcna Ae Haseeno, Tashan and Rockstar. <img alt="Aamir Khan" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/aug/Aamir-Khan_5.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 379px; " /> Aamir didn&rsquo;t approve In the second instance, Aki was also asked to design the look for Aamir Khan in his upcoming action flick but couldn&rsquo;t complete it on time. The source adds, &ldquo;Aamir however didn&rsquo;t approve of the look given to his character. He brought in designers Manoshi Nath and Rushi Sharma. They had worked with the star for his TV show as well as his film with Reema Kagti.&rdquo;

The fashion designer has been unable to finish designing jobs for films forcing filmmakers to look elsewhere
