Hamara Bajaj to get another title

30 Sep 2013

Squabbles for titles are nothing new. Prabhu Dheva's Rambo Rajkumar has been forced to delete the 'Rambo' from the title. Sanjay Leela Bhansali could not get the title Ram Leela. To ensure legal safety the title is subtitled with 'Goliyon Ki Raas Leela.'

Now comes the news that Shoojit Sircar's next film to be produced by John Abraham would no longer be called Hamara Bajaj, as the scooter company of that name has objected to the title.

However Shoojit seems unperturbed by the development. Says the director, "It was never a title registered with us. It was on our wish list. So there is no issue. When I actually get down to writing the script, I will think of a title."

A source close to the project adds, "After Vickey Donor , John, Shoojit and Ayushmann Khurrana wanted to come together in a film with a quirky title. Since Ayushmann's character was named Bajaj in the film they hit upon the title. But now it seems a filmmaker has to make sure that his film's title has no names in it. Rambo and Bajaj have already made their displeasure felt. Who knows who's next in line?" Not Krrish , we hope.
