Honestly, my dad didn't even understand the film had been remade, we heard bout it through social media when @aliabbaszafar tweeted." Further objecting to the unsolicited remake, she went on to create: "It's quite disrespectful and underhanded if it is true, since no person bothered to consult my dad or Shekhar uncle, two people who played a significant role to make the film what it had been and is."
In conditions of what 'Mr India' methods to her father Anil Kapoor who was simply the protagonist of the movie, Ahuja added: "It's sad because that was a film made with heart and effort and is very sentimental to my dad, beyond commerce and announcements, it's a part of his legacy." "I will hope that respect for someone's work and contribution continues to be as vital that you us as a large weekend at the box office," she concluded.
