‘वो ऐसी ओछी हरकत…’, अक्षय-परेश की फिल्म बंद करने के लिए मिली 8 करोड़ की रिश्वत? डायरेक्टर ने बता दिया सच
New Delhi. Aamir Khan’s film ‘PK’ proved to be an all time blockbuster at the box office. It was directed by Rajkumar Hirani. However, the concept of this film was very similar to Umesh Shukla’s ‘OMG’, in which Akshay Kumar and Paresh Rawal were in the lead characters. This movie was released a year ago. Recently, Writer-Director Umesh Shukla spoke on the comparison of both films.
It is natural to see equality
Umesh Shukla further said, ‘Rajkumar Hirani, Vidhu Vinod Chopra and writer Abhijat Joshi, all of them saw my play. So when someone works on the same subject, it is natural to see some similarity in it. If you are making a love story and someone says I love you, then obviously he will say so, because it is a love story.
Was bribe to make a film?
The director also told that at that time there were rumors of Vidhu Vinod Chopra to give him money not to make him ‘OMG’. He said, ‘It was also rumored at that time that Vidhu Vinod Chopra gave me 8 crores so that I would not make a film. But all these were just things, in reality nothing like this happened. He is so many talented people in itself, Rajkumar Hirani Saheb, Abhijat, Vidhu Vinod Chopra Saheb, Aamir Khan Sahab, all these are so talented people that they never do such a small act to stop the film by paying money to anyone. At that time all these were flying things, in reality there was nothing like this.
What were the stories of PK and OMG?
In ‘OMG’, Paresh Rawal played the role of an atheist character who sues God after his shop is broken in the earthquake. This story comes up as a courtroom drama, which questions the practices of religious institutions. At the same time, Aamir Khan played the role of Alien in ‘PK’, whose communication device is stolen and then he exposes the business running in the name of religion.
Both movies were successful at the box office
Both films proved to be successful at the box office. ‘OMG’ earned Rs 149 crore worldwide, while Aamir Khan’s ‘PK’ did a business of Rs 792 crore worldwide.
