New Delhi: Filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya is known for making family oriented films. Infact, his recent release ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo' not just minted crores at the box office but also managed to break several records.
But what if Barjatya gets linked to an adult comedy?
Shocked?
Well so was Sooraj Barjatya himself after he noticed his name being used in double meaning joke in Ekta Kapoor's upcoming sex comedy ‘Kya Kool Hain Hum 3'.
In the trailer, actress Mandana Karimi talks about introducing her reel beau Tusshar Kapoor to her father, who is all about sanskaar and family values. Tusshar then says, "Tumhare daddy Sooraj Barjatya ke filmon ke babuji jaise honge pata nahin tha." Mandana then replies, "Mere daddy Barjatya nahin, Karjatya hain. Surya Karjatya."
According to the media reports, Barjatya was informed about the matter by his assistant directors after the trailer was released and he has been quite upset with the incident.
Infact, the ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo' director is also saddened with the way the adult comedy filmmakers have referred the title of his 1994 blockbuster 'Hum Aapke Hain Koun' as 'Hum Aapke Hai Porn.
While Sooraj is miffed with ‘Kya Kool Hain Hum 3' over defaming his name, he is, reportedly, planning to take legal action against the makers. He has also asked them to delete the references to him and his films in the sex comedy.
On the other hand, Aman Gill, CEO of Balaji Motion Pictures, has reportedly explained that it has been done only for the sake of humour through various spoofs and is not done to insult anyone.
