The controversy surrounding the selection of Eklavya refuse to die down, after Vidhu vinod chopra thrashed all bollywood people who were against his movie, Sajid khan the little brother of Farha has entered the ring with his so called Open letter

Here is a little bits from his letter, he is full of shit

But shall I add that I am yet to see a blockbuster 'directed' by you which has touched hearts of millions across the globe and brought in 'moolah' as well!

Can I also add that cumulative global revenue of all the films directed by you (Eklavya - The Royal Guard, Mission Kashmir, Kareeb, 1942: A Love Story, Parinda, Khamosh, Sazaye Maut, An Encounter with Faces) do not even come near what my debut film Heyy Babyy has earned (and still counting)?

I can't believe he has the audacity to compare his pathetic so called comedy film which was filled with double meaning lines, to a brilliant movie like parinda.
Hey baby may have made lot of money, but it was no where near the quality of Parinda, which had some of the memorable performances from Nana patekar, Jackie shroff, and Anil kapoor

According to Mr. Sajid fucking khan, box office success should be the benchmark to judge the talent of a Director, well than, even Aap ka suroor should be termed as a classic as it definitely made more money than Hey baby

I'm not defending Mr.Vidhu vinod chopra, but why is this furor this time around while lame and stupid movies have been sent in the past, how come Sajid khan didn't dare sent open letter to shahrukh khan when his Paheli was sent for Oscars

This seems to be the mantra for Farha khan, after the starcast of movie Saawariya made their presence at Star voice of india show to promote their movie, it was the turn of the team of OM SHANTI OM to do their little jig, and what better than a rival show, Saaregamapa. The three Mega Finalists perform to the songs from the movie OM SHANTI OM, to the delight of Vishal Shekhar who have given the music for the movie












As we all know both the movies will be releasing on same date, and their is no love lost between the directors of both the movies, Sanjay leela bhansali and Farha khan's
grudge goes way back, it all started from Vidhu vinod chopra's 1942 a love story, where both of them wanted to take credit of the songs direction
Although, there was believe to be a truce between the two when SRK worked in Devdas, but now all seems to have lost and they are ready to clash at box office and nobody wants to leave any stone unturn to outdo each other

It came as a shock when Eklavya was chosen as India's official entry, considering the fact that this year we had many good movies like Frozen, Dharam, Gandhi my father, and Chak de, My knowledge of regional cinema isn't much so forgive me if I missed out on a good regional movie

Its obvious that this hasn't gone down well with many people, and people like Farah khan, Anupam kher didn't have very nice words to say about the movie as they reckon that Eklavya wasn't an exceptional movie, and Chak de would have been a better choice,
and Bhawna talwar, whose movie dharam missed out was feeling dejected and claimed that there was a politics involved, and went on to say that Eklavya was a boring film

It seems that Vidhu viod chopra has had enough of all these rantings, responding to all these criticisms, chopra said, “What are the credentials of these people…what is their understanding of cinema…where does their allegiance lie,” said Vidhu Vinod Chopra when asked to react to the comments of a few filmmakers like Farah Khan, Sajid Khan and Anupam Kher who didn’t approve of Eklavya being chosen as the official entry for Oscars this year. “Last year Lage Raho didn’t go, did I, Raju or anybody from my office say why Munnabhai didn’t go, it was a better film. Before that Parineeta didn’t go, Paheli went. Did I say that Shah Rukh made a stupid film. My films didn’t go for two years, I didn’t bother anyone, why are they bothering us now,”

“The young filmmaker whose film hasn’t gone, I heard, she has said in Mid Day that Eklavya was a boring film. I can tell her, I saw your film, and I thought it was a load of shit. It’s immature, childish.” But what about the resistance within the film industry, even people like Anupam Kher (who’ve worked in films like Parinda and 1942 A Love Story) have said that Chak De India would have been a better choice? “My answer is, maybe Anupam has worked more with some other Chopra. To the film fraternity that is opposing, let me tell them, LA Times has called Eklavya a lost film of David Lean. I wonder if these people who shoot back side asses of women know who David Lean is. David Lean is the God of Cinema. He made ‘Lawrence of Arabia.’ When I heard it, I had tears in my eyes. New York Times called it a heart of classic. These people need to be educated a little bit about cinema,” Chopra said.

Eklavya had won good reviews when it was released, but somehow it failed to match the Box Office glory of your last few films like Lage Raho Munnabhai, Parineeta and Munnabhai MBBS? “Parinda was not a huge Box Office success. You know there are filmmakers for whom Box Office success is all that matters. There are others, which I believe I am, who are making films that they believe in. If it succeeds like Lage Raho, we are very happy. But if doesn’t like Eklavya, we are still very happy because we made a film that I believed in. Let me tell you what I read in The Hindustan Times. The reporter said that the film cost Rs. 20 crore. It is wrong. Then it said it ran for 3 weeks. Again wrong. Eklavya ran for 15 weeks. Just to make their story, they have misquoted it.”
