Actor Irrfan Khan, who is presently promoting his movie
Madaari, recently called out Tamil megastar Rajnikanth for plagiarism his
film's poster. The poster in question has the faces of the lead actors Irrfan
Khan and Rajinikanth from one side with numerous buildings and skyscrapers
standing horizontally next to their faces.
During the promotion of Madaari in a mall, Irrfan Khan got
to know about the Kabali poster and accused Rajinikanth and the makers of
stealing their poster design. He told, "Even I didn't know that. We are
small filmmakers, I saw that Rajinikanthji's film stole the poster of our movie.
You see his film's poster and see our film's poster. No issues. Watch his film
and watch our film, too."
After the word reached Rajinikanth admirers, they came forward
in support the star to explain about the same and it turns out that the poster
is actually a fan-made one. Neither the official page has that poster nor has
Rajinikanth posted it on his twitter account. He had shared only two official
posters last year. It seems like that even the makers of Kabali may not be
aware of the poster.
Irrfan Khan assuredly seems to have goofed up with this by
announcing the poster design theft without cross checking the truths.
Rajinikanth's Kabali and Irrfan Khan's Madaari are slated to
release on July 15.
