Ekta Kapoor In Trouble For Using Sooraj Barjatya’s Name

Ekta Kapoor’s latest project, Kyaa Kool Hain Hum 3, is a sex comedy that stars Tusshar Kapoor, Afatab Shivdasani and Mandana Karimi. The director seems to have got herself in trouble for using filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya’s name in the movie without his permission, for which Sooraj might sue her. The trailer for the film was recently released which had a scene where Sooraj’s name was mentioned.

In the trailer, Tusshar says, “Tumhare daddy Sooraj Barjatya ke filmon ke babuji jaise honge pata nahin tha”, to which Mandana replies, “Mere daddy Barjatya nahin, Karjatya hain. Surya Karjatya”. A source told Mid Day, “After the trailer released, one of Barjatya’s assistant directors informed him about references being made to him and asked him to watch it. He is upset that his name has been used without permission”.

The trailer also uses the title of one of Sooraj’s films, Hum Aapke Hain Koun, as a parody - ‘Hum Aapke Hai Porn’. This also upset the director of the 1994 film. For this, the source added, “The assistant director has conveyed Barjatya’s response to the makers of the sex comedy”.
