The recent buzz about a rift between the Kapoor brothers over casting decisions for the anticipated sequel ‘No Entry Mein Entry’ has been the subject of much speculation. However, filmmaker Boney Kapoor has stepped forward with a statement setting the record straight, countering claims that his brother, actor Anil Kapoor, harbors any ill feelings towards him for not being included in ‘No Entry 2’.
It all began earlier in the week when rumors swirled that Anil Kapoor was displeased with his older brother Boney for not securing him a role in the sequel to the 2005 hit comedy ‘No Entry’. As the story gained traction within the entertainment news cycles, Boney Kapoor took it upon himself to provide clarity on the matter.
In a recent communication with the media, Boney Kapoor expressed his surprise at the press for giving unintended gravity to what was meant to be a lighthearted comment. “I am shocked and surprised that the press has made an issue of a very light-hearted and not a very successful attempt at humor when I said ‘Anil is angry with me’,” explained Boney, underscoring that his offhand remark about Anil Kapoor being “angry” was simply a joke and never a serious accusation.
Boney went on to elaborate that both Salman Khan and Anil Kapoor, the stars of the original film, were not considered for the sequel due to their incredibly packed schedules. He noted that Anil Kapoor, in particular, is at the zenith of his career with no availability for the next couple of years. Boney articulated that the decision to feature a newer generation of actors in ‘No Entry Mein Entry’ was pragmatic and in no means a slight against the original cast members.
“To think that either of them can be upset with me because they are not a part of the sequel of ‘No Entry’ is an idea totally absurd and ridiculous. No Entry sequel may have needed them, but they don’t need the sequel. This comment has clearly been said only in humor,” Boney emphasized, refuting any claims of a serious feud.
Moreover, Boney expressed his intention to address any misunderstandings directly with his brother Anil. He assured that both have shared a lifelong journey in the film industry, supporting each other tirelessly, and their bond remains unshakable.
Both brothers have busy careers to focus on, with Anil Kapoor awaiting the release of ‘Subedaar’, a film helmed by director Suresh Triveni. Meanwhile, Boney Kapoor’s recent role in the romantic comedy ‘Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar’, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Shraddha Kapoor, and Dimple Kapadia, has kept him in the limelight. Furthermore, Boney’s next production venture is the sports biopic ‘Maidaan’, featuring Ajay Devgn as the iconic football coach Syed Abdul Rahim. This film promises to be an intriguing portrayal of a pivotal figure in Indian football history and boasts a cast that includes Priyamani, Gajraj Rao, and Rudranil Ghosh.
In conclusion, Boney Kapoor’s clarification has put to rest any rumors concerning the casting of ‘No Entry Mein Entry’. The professional choices made are based on logistics and schedules, not personal disagreements. This instance highlights how easily misunderstandings can occur and the importance of direct communication to dispel unfounded speculations in the ever-buzzing world of entertainment news.
