The first Bollywood clash in 2018 is Padmaavat vs PadMan.
Film Padmaavat has been riddled with disputes from the get
go and has finally settled on the release date of January 25, 2018. But, the
date was already taken by PadMan previously.
When a tabloid questioned PadMan producer Twinkle Khanna
about the clash, she told, "It’s not pleasant for both [the parties] and
will impact both. But they have also been through enough of their own hurdles.
But I wish they would have come a week earlier or a week after us preferably. I
am sure Mr [Sanjay Leela] Bhansali has made a wonderful movie but we are very
confident of our content. So, I am not apprehensive, and we are not going to
move or anything because we are very happy with what [date] we have. (laughs).
He has been making relevant choices. He has also been undergoing a personal
evolution. What I find remarkable, as somebody who has been with him for almost
18 years now, is that he isn’t afraid to take leaps and change with times and
grow. Even his thought process vis-à-vis what he would think 10 years ago and
now, is evolving. That’s [how] all of us [are] at this age."
R. Balki's PadMan is based on Arunachalam Muruganantham
(inventor of low-cost sanitary napkins for women in rural areas) and stars
Akshay Kumar, Radhika Apte and Sonam Kapoor.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Padmaavat stars Deepika Padukone,
Ranveer Singh and Shahid Kapoor.
