Kangana chor hai

Simran was written by Apurva Asrani. He took her inputs while shooting but now apparently she wants the whole credit. Looks like Simran is going to be even bigger disaster than Rangoon.

When quizzed how many changes in the script have been made to justify Kangana's name in the credits for additional story and dialogues, Apurva clarifies, "The story and screenplay are almost exactly what I registered with the Film Writers' Association (FWA). Hansal had sent me a news article about a woman in the US who had crossed the line of the law. I loved it, but I didn't want us to make another dark and gritty film after Aligarh. So we stripped the original story of its baggage and found the playfulness in it. I love storytelling through songs, have produced and directed the Tera Mera Pyar videos for Kumar Sanu and Shreya Ghoshal. I've written four songs."

He adds, "About the additional dialogue credit, Kangana totally deserves it.She improvised on many of the dialogues and did a remarkable job. She has brought a Chaplinesque performance style to my scenes reminiscent of Sridevi in her prime. When I saw in the rushes how she had interpreted her character and influenced the other actors, I was sure that she would make a terrific director one day. I'd often joke with Hansal that you can't call Kangana a co-writer as she has never actually collaborated with the writer. Her improvisations happened on set, so she deserves to be called a co-director."

Thoda bahot improv ka poora writing credit hi maang lia to justify writing courses done in videshi country 😆
