Anees Bazmee REACTS To Anil Kapoor-Boney Kapoor Fight Over No Entry 2: 'Aadmi Ko Hurt Hoga…' – News18

Days after Boney Kapoor opened up about his rift with actor-brother Anil Kapoor over No Entry 2, filmmaker Anees Bazmee has now opened up about it. In a recent interview, Bazmee, who will be directing the No Entry sequel, mentioned that Boney and Anil’s fight is “news” to him too. He argued that he was unable to talk to Boney Kapoor about it but added that it is “natural” for Anil to be upset.

“This is news to me. Thodi bahut naraazgi hogi,” Anees Bazmee said as quoted by Hindustan Times. “I haven’t been able to speak to Boney ji as I was busy shooting Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3,” the filmmaker continued.

The original No Entry starred Salman Khan, Anil Kapoor, Fardeen Khan, Esha Deol, Lara Dutta, Bipasha Basu and Celina Jaitly. However, Anil will not be a part of the film’s sequel which will have Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh and Arjun Kapoor. Therefore, Bazmee argued that it is obvious of Anil Kapoor to feel sad. “No Entry (2005) was an important film. Agar uske sequel mein nahin hain toh naturally aadmi ko hurt hoga,” Bazmee added but explained that “Boney ji must have had his reasons, too.”

However, Anees Bazmee also mentioned he is sure that the two brothers will reconcile soon. “They are brothers… Tomorrow they will meet and hug each other. They both love each other,” he said.

Recently, Boney Kapoor revealed that Anil wanted to be a part of the sequel, but unfortunately, there was “no space”. He revealed that after the cast of No Entry 2 leaked, Anil got upset and has not been talking to him since then. “Before I could tell my brother Anil about the No Entry sequel and the cast involved, he got angry as the news was already leaked. It was unfortunate that it was leaked. I know he wanted to be a part of the No Entry sequel, but there was no space. I wanted to explain why I did what I did,” Boney told Zoom in an interview.

Boney Kapoor further explained the reason behind casting Varun, Arjun and Diljit in the movie and revealed, “Varun and Arjun are great friends. Their chemistry could come out in the story, and Diljit is massive today. He has a great fan following. I wanted to make it relevant in today’s time. That’s why I did this casting.”
