Team PK didn’t offer Rs 8 crore to the makers of OMG! Oh My God

Umesh ShuklaIn an interview with Joginder Tuteja, OMG! Oh My God director Umesh Shukla has rubbished reports of Aamir Khan and Rajkumar Hirani offering Rs 8 crore to shelve the Paresh Rawal starrer that released in 2012.

Shukla says “Bullshit. Where these useless rumours come from, I have no idea. There was nothing like that. This is not true at all. These (Aamir, Hirani, Chopra) are good people, you can’t even think like that”

Shukla also added that, if the news was indeed true, they could have used it to promote their film during its release.

“If this was true then it would have been good news at the time when my film was getting ready for release. It would have made for such a good read that Aamir likes the core concept of my film so much. If that news had spread, it would have benefitted my film. We are straight forward people. We just want to do a good job and give the audience some good stuff. Abhijat (Joshi) is a good friend of mine. If he makes something then I will go and watch it. I like his work.”

  • Don’t know about Aamir, But I’m sure VVC and Hirani are very good at heart.

    Particularly Hirani. See his interviews, his warm smile and goodness is genuine. I doubt whether someone like him, after the humongous success of 3I will do like this.

  • Right from the release PK is getting unnecessary controversies . First Ban on PK and then this . I think some people are really hell bent on pulling down PK . If somebody does not likes PK then it is fine . If they say that OMG is better than PK it is fine . But is absurd that some people are deliberately doing this to create negativity . Hats Off to the honesty of Umesh Shukla who has confirmed that Aamir, Raju and VVC have not approached him to stop shooting OMG . He could have stayed out of this matter but he had courage and he spoke the truth . # Respect for Umesh Shukla . I am looking forward towards to your next movie All is Well starring Abhishek and Asin . I hope it will be brilliant .

    You should go back to your source and SACK him or tell him where to go after posting the article yesterday which was in all purposes totally baseless…. I said it then that such articles carry no weight so maybe next time get direct quotes/ contact the main parties directly to find out whats what… Kudos to Jogi on a job well done…
