Writer-director Anees Bazmee says he doesn't mix 'n' match scripts with projects like women colour-coordinate their clothes and clarifies that his forthcoming romantic comedy Thank You is not part two of his 2005 hit No Entry.
"I read that my script for Thank You is actually the script that I wrote for the sequel to 'No Entry'. Ab aap bataayiye (now you tell me), am I so foolish that I'd just mix 'n' match scripts with projects like women colour-coordinate their clothes?
"And if I had actually given over the script of No Entry Mein Entry (No Entry 2) to another producer, would Boney Kapoor (who produced No Entry) have been happy with me?
"For the record, the script of No Entry Mein Entry is in progress. The idea for Thank You came to me when I was shooting a song with Akshay Kumar and Katrina in Egypt."
Thank You is said to be about three married guys who romance other women and originally Katrina was supposed play the lead opposite Akshay, but later Sonam Kapoor stepped in.
"Some people are spreading these baseless stories about my projects. They won't spare a bachcha (kid) like Aarya Babbar either. Some people wrote he abandoned my location in Bangkok for Ready to join Shirish Kunder and Farah Khan in Chandigarh for Joker because they are like his family.
"For the record, even our unit is like one big family. Aarya did not desert our shooting. He left when there was a break, and with my permission. Please spare the boy. He's trying to establish himself," he said.
Bazmee's first big hit was Ajay Devgn and Kajol starrer 1998 romantic comedy Pyaar To Hona Hi Tha. And he also gave hits like Welcome and Singh Is Kinng with Akshay.
He is currently busy shooting Ready with Salman Khan in Bangkok and supervising the post-production Thank You here.
"I've two big back-to-back releases, first Thank You and then Ready. I suppose that's too much for my well-wishers to digest. I request them to let me do my work in peace. The rest I leave to god and the audience," said the director.
