Notice period negotiation

I resigned from my current company a couple of days ago. I have a 90 day notice period. I tried to negotiate it with my manager of the current company, asking to release early as the new company has early requirements and also on a medical ground basis, but my manager is not agreeing. I tried to talk with the HR of my current company. HR is ready to give the "buy out" option and I am also ok with it. But for the "buy out" to happen, HR needs something officially written from my manager that I do not have any dependency on the project. But my manager is not giving it officially. Feels like they are trying to keep me in loops and waste my time. I really do not have dependency on the project. What shall I do? I need to leave early to join the other company as they are offering quite well. Please suggest to me how I should get my notice period reduced?

Review your employment contract carefully. Some companies enforce notice periods, but others allow legal loopholes for early release!

Have you tried detailing your completed tasks and zero-dependency status in writing?
