Ali Abbas Zafar's recent announcement about the remake of Mr. India has kicked up a storm in the Kapoor household. While director Shekhar Kapoor and Anil Kapoor are clueless about the remake, producer Boney Kapoor seems to have given his nod for the film. According to a report in a news portal, Boney has given his consent for the project without informing his brother Anil Kapoor into confidence.
A source informed the portal that technically, Boney is right as he is the producer of the film he does not need to consult anyone before giving his approval. However, Anil not being kept in the loop who was the leading man of the original might not have gone down well with the veteran actor. Anil's daughter Sonam Kapoor Ahuja also took to her social media to express her displeasure regarding the matter.
Meanwhile, filmmaker Shekhar Kapur was the first one to react to the news as he was not informed about the same. According to the director, he has moral rights over the film. The 1987 classic Mr. India starred Anil Kapoor and late Sridevi in the lead roles. Upon its release the movie received positive response and is considered one of the iconic films in Bollywood film history.
