Height Of AUDACITY: Kedarnath Director Gattu CHALLENGES Shah Rukh For A WAR With Sushant Singh Rajput!
Last night, Sara Ali Khan and Sushant Singh Rajput’s director took to Twitter to announce a box-office clash with Shah Rukh Khan-Aanand L Rai’s film BUT that’s not the whole story...
Last night, close
to mid-night, Kedarnath producer, Prernaa Arora, lead pair- Sushant Singh
Rajput and Sara Ali Khan almost fell off their bed as film’s director, Gattu
(Abhishek Kapoor) tweeted about Kedarnath’s release date.
He took to
Twitter and VERY CASUALLY gave industry the news of one of its biggest
box-office clashes in 2018. He wrote, “To all
my friends in the media, #kedarnath
is on schedule for 21 st dec 2018 #jaibholenath”
Abhishek Kapoor's Tweet
Well yes, Dec 21, 2018 is the same day Shah Rukh Khan’s film with
Aanand L Rai starring Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma will hit theatres.
Gattu surely seem
to be hallucinating or probably was not in his senses when he announced the
release date. Why do we say that?

You will be as
shocked as we were to know that Gattu announced the date WITHOUT discussing it
with his film’s producer, Prernaa Arora of KriArj Entertainment.
What’s even more
absurd is that just 2 days back, Prernaa had a cordial meeting with Shah
Ruh Khan at Mannat, where the two discussed everything including a future
project together.

SpotboyE.com also
told you that when the topic of an impending clash between Shah Rukh's upcoming film (directed by Aanand L Rai)
and Prernaa's Kedarnath came up, KriArj Entertainment’s head honcho humbly
agreed to shift the date of Sushant-Sara starrer in order to avoid a box-office
clash with King Khan, who she really respects a lot.
It is believed
that Gattu and Prernaa had a heated argument after the news of her meeting with
SRK came out in the open.
And then the
Kedarnath director tweeted about the Dec 21, 2018 release
date, very rudely signalling a FACE-OFF with King Khan, which of course, has
left Prernaa SHOCKED.

Undoubtedly, the
director’s tweet was in bad taste. It is appalling that Gattu, whose last
outing, Fitoor (He ran into a big tiff with Rekha, who eventually left the film. She was later replaced by Tabu, again disturbing production modalities), was a box-office disaster (it left a massive hole in producers's pocket) and who has few to none backing him,
does something like this to a producer who has given him a commercially sound
platform for his next film, which is also big because it’s Saif and Amrita’s
daughter’s debut.

Let’s not forget
that it is Gattu himself, who is largely responsible for the delay of the film, which
was earlier scheduled to release on June 22. It
was Gattu who sacked team members amidst the shoot and disrupted
production modalities due to which the film was on a halt for a while. He
also had a tiff with Sushant Singh Rajput. Despite all of this, Prernaa
did not utter a word and continued to provide a smooth shooting environment for
the team. Sadly, this is what she got in return!
Gattu received a lot of flak on Twitter as well from
Internet users. Here are a few comments:

Never has any
director made an announcement about the release date of the film, without the
producer’s consent. But here, Gattu has shamefully gone ahead and left Prernaa
disappointed and embarrassed.
Even though this
announcement has no weight as the steering wheel is in the producer’s hand,
Gattu has unnecessarily initiated a discussion in the industry which might
upset equations between people. Just by creating an imaginary box-office war,
his product will gain zilch.
Can he now tweet,
why he did something like this without Prernaa Arora’s permission & without
keeping Sushant Singh Rajput and Sara Ali Khan in loop?
