  • "I don't have any information about whether he is upset or not. But even if he is, when he sees the film, he'll get an idea that we have not made fun of the film," said Tusshar Kapoor.
  • The comedy film has a scene where the leading ladies, Neha Sharma and Sarah Jane Dias are dressed as Chandramukhi and Paro, while Tusshar Kapoor is seen as Devdas. It is this scene which has reportedly rubbed Sanjay Leela Bhansali the wrong way.
  • But Tusshar Kapoor says that the scene is not a mockery of Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Devdas alone.
  • "It doesn't really connect to Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Devdas. The old ones (Devdas movies) also had Paro and Chandramukhi and the costumes were also the same, and Devdas even had a bottle in his hand. So this is no one's copyright. But I don't think he is upset. His Devdas was a hit film, that's why we have imitated it. If it not had been a hit, there would not have been any mention of it. He should be happy and I am sure he is," the actor said.
  • Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum, releasing this Friday (July 27, 2012), also features Riteish Deshmukh.
