It's been more than a week since the
Abhishek Kapoor-Prernaa Arora rift
over Kedarnath came to the fore. Blaming
his co-producer KriArj Entertainment for
lack of transparency and funds, Gattu (as
the filmmaker is popularly known) issued
them a termination notice. Apparently, his
team also leaked out some sensitive'
information against their partners
jeopardising the arrangement between
them. Gattu's high-handed behaviour on the
sets had been making headlines long before
this split took place. And, one hears from
insiders that Prernaa was not the only one
at the receiving end. The director also had
"uncomplimentary things to say about
industry bigwigs like Shah Rukh Khan, Karan
Johar, and Rohit Shetty for various
reasons. Sample this:
SRK LOOKS LIKE AN ALIEN IN ZERO'
The first crack in the Abhishek-KriArj
relationship occurred when Prernaa
suggested that they should move the release
date of Kedarnath from December 21, 2018,
to avert a clash with SRK's Zero. A source
reveals, "Her suggestion hurt Gattu's ego. So,
he tweeted that Kedarnath would release
with Zero, even after Prernaa had officially
announced that the film would come on a
different date. That's not all. Gattu
reportedly sent messages to people,
spewing venom against SRK. Says another
source, who is a recipient of one of those
messages, "Right before the Zero teaser was
released on January 1, Gattu sent out a text
saying he had watched the teaser and the
song and felt SRK looked like an alien in it.
He has been ridiculing the actor and his look
as a dwarf ever since. He is confident that
his film will be better than Zero.
DHADAK FEELS LIKE A SOUTH REHASH'
Kedarnath is meant to be Saif Ali Khan and
Amrita Singh's daughter Sara's launchpad.
Sridevi's beti Janhvi, too, is making her
debut with Karan Johar's
production Dhadak, which is the Hindi
remake of the superhit Marathi film Sairat.
For those who came in late, it was Karan
who was previously meant to launch Sara.
He has now turned mentor for Janhvi.
Although the shoot for Kedarnath started
months before Dhadak, the latter will hit the
screens first. That means Janhvi will be
making a splash on celluloid months before
Sara. When the first-look poster
of Dhadak was unveiled, Abhishek
apparently mocked them. A source claims,
"He sent a few texts saying he feels it's a
rehash of a South film. He also said that the
posters lacked steam. Hence, he didn't
consider Janhvi as a threat to Sara.
SIMMBA WON'T BE READY'
Abhishek is confident that his film will
release on December 21 and it will clash
with SRK's film. But one must not forget that
Gattu's love-saga could also face stiff
competition in its second week because
Rohit Shetty's Simmba is scheduled to
release on December 28. Given how Ranveer
Singh and Rohit have their loyal fan
base, Simmba is obviously a movie that
everyone's looking forward to. But Gattu
allegedly has his own take on this one, too.
Our khabri reveals, "He is extremely sure
that Rohit won't be able to wrap
up Simmba in time and it won't hit theatres
on the decided date.
Now, with KriArj Entertainment likely to
move Bombay High Court to reinforce its
right on Kedarnath, the movie's fate looks
uncertain. Moreover, it remains to be seen
how the industry will react to the
filmmaker's comments.
