Filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani is currently going through a rough patch of sorts. The celebrated director has been facing the heat ever since his name came up as an accused over a sexual harassment case. The alleged incident had happened on the sets of ‘Sanju’. Raju Hirani has totally denied all the allegations and called them untrue.
Vidhu Vinod Chopra, who is considered very close to Hirani, allegedly had a fall out with the director. The ‘3 Idiots’ director’s name was dropped from ‘Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga’s posters. This feature film was co-produced by Chopra and directed by Shelly Chopra Dhar.
Hirani made his first public appearance recently at the Ambani wedding. At the venue, Rajkumar was reportedly seen interacting with Vidhu Vinod Chopra and exchanging pleasantries. Looks like the two have mended their ties, after all. Meanwhile, during the ‘ELKDTAL’ launch, when Chopra was asked to comment on the allegations, he kept silent on this matter.
Rajkumar Hirani is considered as one of the best filmmakers of this generation and has given blockbusters like ‘Munnabhai MBBS’, ‘Lage Raho Munna Bhai’, ‘3 Idiots’, ‘PK’ and ‘Sanju’. Many of his peers from the industry have also rubbished the allegations and backed the director.
Hopefully, Hirani clears his name once and for all and gets back to making masterpieces.
