'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara' doesn't come with any 'hangover'
- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,May 20 2011]
The makers of ÂZindagi Na Milegi Dobara are having the final laugh. Promo of their multi starrer youth affair is out and in the process has quashed all speculations around the film being a remake of Hollywood slapstick blockbuster ÂThe Hangover (2009).
ÂEven though there were accusations around similarities, we didnÂt react because we knew the product that we were making, says Ritesh Sidhwani, the filmÂs producer.
Starring Hrithik Roshan, Katrina Kaif, Farhan Akhtar, Abhay Deol and Kalki Koechelin, this Zoya Akhtar film is story of three boys who go on a road trip to celebrate the impending marriage of one of them (Abhay). With the plot line bearing similarities with ÂThe HangoverÂ, it didn't take much time for speculations to begin.
ÂWell, for you to further know about it all, we had actually registered our script 10 days before the release of ÂThe HangoverÂ. What more should I say. We were just smiling away even as these rumours were making the rounds, adds Ritesh.
On a parting note he adds, We at Excel have never plagiarized a film. Also if we ever remake a film, we will go for procuring the rights, as we did in case of ÂDonÂ.Â
We certainly stand corrected Ritesh and would want to now check out the film for ourselves when it releases all over on 15th July.
