A spokesperson from SLB Productions said, "Hadippa is the title of Bhansali's sister Bela Sehgal's first directorial venture. Bhansali turned down Aditya Chopra's request to let him use the title. If it was his own he'd have considered Aditya's request but as this is his sister's first film, Bhansali won't allow her title to be taken away even if it means taking legal action." "How could they add two words to Hadippa and claim the title to be their own? Would they have liked it if someone made Ek Baar Rab Ne Phir Bana Di Jodi or Pataa Nahin Kyun Laaga Chunari Mein Daag?" Lead actress of Dil Bole Hadippa!, Rani Mukerji, who is close to both the production houses, tried but failed to arrange a meeting between the two filmmakers to solve matters. "What's there to discuss? What YRF has done is unethical. We at SLB Productions see it as creative vandalism. We've written proof that YRF had assured us they won't use the word Hadippa. If the need arises, we'll use that evidence against them," the spokesperson added. Commenting on the issue, an annoyed Bhansali said, "If they were so sold on a Punjabi title, since their film is about cricket, they could've called it Balle Balle." MumbaiMirror |
