Animated alike

Roadside Romeo and Kuchi Kuchi Hota Hai's promos are pretty similar

The promos of Yash Raj’s Roadside Romeo, directed by Jugal Hansraj, have been doing the rounds for the last few months.

The animated film has Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor doing voiceovers for the two canines.

Karan Johar, too, is making his animated version of the Shah Rukh-Kajol starrer Kuch Kuch Hota Hai which he has titled Kuchi Kuchi Hota Hai. The cast of the film comprises animals, including canines.

A source working on the project reveals that the soon-to-be-released promos for KKHH are quite similar to Roadside Romeo!

Maple leaves

“One of the promos of Roadside Romeo has maple tree leaves fluttering about in the opening sequence before Kareena’s character walks in. KKHH also has leaves quivering to the tunes of the film’s score.

Now that Romeo’s promo is out, Karan doesn’t want to give an impression that his promo looks similar to the Yash Raj film.”

Along with their recent release, Tashan, Yash Raj also unveiled new teasers about Roadside Romeo which revolve around Kareena’s character who gives an introduction to the audience. The film is slated for a Diwali release.

Though it’s Karan’s film, Tarun Mansukhani has taken an active interest in KKHH as well. Adds the source, “Tarun is busy directing Dostana now but he did closely work on the promos.”

Will KJo change the promos for his film or go ahead with the original ones? We’ll be waiting and watching for that!
