Ram Sampath, who was composing the music for Bhushan Kumar and Abhay Chopra produced ��Bhootnath Returns�۪, has reportedly walked out of the project after a major disagreement with the producers.

A source told Mid-Day, ���Ram had a difficult time with the producers of the film due to their differing views on the music royalty issue. Now he has decided to not work on this film�۝. This follows Abhay Deol�۪s fall-out with T-Series and Bhushan Kumar over the music rights of his movie, ��One By Two�۪ (2014).

Apparently, Ranbir Kapoor was due to do a feature song in the movie but as Sampath�۪s compositions weren�۪t well received, he settled for a guest appearance instead.

It is thought that there are two other music directors in ��Bhootnath Returns�۪ who will be mentioned when the music launch happens. There was some ill-feeling when mentions of them didn�۪t happen during the official trailer launch.

When Sampath was contacted for his comment, he cited ���creative disagreements�۝ as the reason for his departure and wasn�۪t willing to divulge any more information.

��Bhootnath Returns�۪ is sequel to the 2008 film ��Bhootnath�۪ and stars Amitabh Bachchan as protagonist.
