The buzz doing the rounds in the industry is that Akshay Kumar-Katrina Kaif's sizzling rain dance number (Gale lag ja….), which had been doing the rounds for all this while to promote the flick, can be viewed from Tuesday onwards. However, this step of the filmmaker has started a debate about the ethical side of the story, especially from the point of view of a viewer.
In fact, the fans, who had bought tickets to watch Akshay Kumar-Katrina Kaif sizzling chemistry on the screen in that rain song, were feeling cheated. They argue that they were first to patronize the film and so they should have been treated with more respect and not cheated by removing the song from the flick for first few days.
The industry analysts are of the view that this step amounts to shortsightedness on the part of filmmakers. It is possible that some hard core fans of Akshay-Katrina Kaif may return to watch the sizzling hot number in theatres, but majority will never come. And even in future they will be wary of visiting theatres for the same reason.
They point out that if Priyadarshan wanted to keep the sexy dance of Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif for later times, he should not have promoted the flick on that basis. There are numerous examples in bollywood when a song number had been added to attract the viewers at a later stage (remember 'Amitabh Ko Bulao To Jane…' number from Madhuri Dixit's 'Tezaab', which was added after the movie became hit).
But it is for the first time in bollywood history that the main attraction of the flick is missing from the first day of its theatrical release(in this case Akshay-Katrina's number 'Gale Lag Ja' missing from 'De Dana Dan' from day one).
