'Ghar ki baat hai': Anil on 'No Entry 2' exclusion
What's the story
Veteran actor Anil Kapoor has finally spoken about being replaced in the sequel to the successful 2005 comedy, No Entry.
In a recent interview with DNA, Anil responded to his replacement by stating, "Ghar ki baat hai, ghar mein rehne do. Usse kya discuss karna (It's a personal matter, why should we discuss it)."
The original film was produced by his brother Boney Kapoor and was a major hit for both of them.
It co-starred Fardeen Khan and Salman Khan.
Family dynamics
'Boney is never wrong'
Boney had previously disclosed that Anil was upset about not being included in No Entry 2.
Responding to these claims, Anil said, "Dekho ghar ki baat ko kya discuss karna (Look, what is there to discuss about the family matters). And, he (Boney) is never wrong."
Boney had earlier said that Anil was not communicating with him properly due to his disappointment over the news of his replacement.
