While a recent mish-mash of an old Sangeeta Bijlani number from Tridev is making its way into DJs’ playlists across clubs, it comes to light that neither Bijlani nor Viju Shah, who composed ‘Oye Oye... Gajar ne kiya hai ishaara’, was consulted by the makers of Azhar before using their song in the film.
Says a source, “Forget about the song, the Azhar makers haven’t consulted Sangeeta even before using her name and visuals of her movie.” The Azharuddin biopic makes broad references to her life and marriage with the cricketer. The source also informs that Sangeeta is partly responsible for this in some way.
“The makers did try to approach her, but she made it very clear she had nothing to do with the project. Does that give them the right to proceed any way ” the source asks.
The remix is just one of the many issues. “Nargis Fakhri, who plays Sangeeta, looks nothing like the original. She doesn’t even speak her own lines,” the source says.
Apparently Sangeeta will take action against the way she is portrayed if she finds it to be in poor light.
