Title war over ‘Hadippa’ continues

Yash Raj Films and Sanjay Leela Bhansali continue to fight over the title of YRF’s upcoming movie “Dil Bole Hadippa”.

We had earlier reported that despite repeated attempts by YRF to convince Bhansali to part with the title “Hadippa”, the filmmaker did not as the title has been reserved for his sister Bela’s debut film as a director.

After Bhansali turned down Aditya Chopra’s request for the title, YRF apparently gave him written promise that they will not use the word ‘Hadippa’ in the title of their Rani Mukerji-Shahid Kapur starrer.

However, now that YRF has released the theatrical trailer of the film, Bhasali has realised that two words have been added to his title and YRF’s film is now called “Dil Bole Hadippa”.

According to a spokesperson from SLB Productions, Bhansali apparently is very upset as he feels what YRF has done is unethical and is even contemplating taking legal action.

Rani, the lead star of the movie and a friend of both Sanjay and Aditya, is reportedly now trying her best to organise a meeting between the two parties to peacefully settle the issue.
