Exclusive: Mohit Suri Reveals His Wife And Paap Actor Udita Goswami, A DJ Now, "Is Asked To Play Saiyaara At Gigs"
New Delhi: The Saiyaara wave is everywhere from box office records to club dancefloors. Director Mohit Suri, in an exclusive chat with NDTV, revealed that the film's massive success has reached his home in the most unexpected way: his wife Udita Goswami, who's a DJ now, is getting flooded with requests to play the Saiyaara soundtrack at gigs. "Yes, my wife is a DJ, suddenly everyone is asking her to play Saiyaara," Mohit said with a smile, acknowledging the surreal moment the entire family is experiencing. The filmmaker added that while his wife has always been his biggest support system, this success feels like her moment just as much as his. "She has known me for the last 22 years. It's very difficult being in her position because the highs are not that high sometimes and the lows are very low but you still have to be there supporting," he said. For the unversed, Udita Goswami made her debut in the Hindi film industry with Pooja Bhatt's Paap (2003). She acted in Mohit Suri's directorial debut Zeher with Emraan Hashmi. She went on to act in films like Aksar, Dil Diya Hai, Kisse Pyaar Karoon, Apartment. But she left films a decade ago and became a DJ. Mohit, who married Udita after a decade of being in the film industry, said the couple skipped holidays and made sacrifices while he was working on Saiyaara. "There's always that one love you share which is your obsession with your film. She made all those sacrifices and never made it difficult for me," he said. Their daughter is now enjoying the spotlight too. "She suddenly realised I'm famous and she's loving the paps covering us. The last time when she was spotted, started making her hair and I was like what are you doing?" he laughed. "My son didn't care much. He's like what is happening?" Meanwhile, Saiyaara minted Rs 273.50 crore at the domestic box office within 13 days of its release. Globally, it crossed the Rs 400 crore mark.

Eros Says Aanand L Rai Knew Of Raanjhanaa AI-Edited Climax. "Not Consulted," Hits Back Director
The controversy around the AI-edited climax of Raanjhanaa 's Tamil version, up for re-release tomorrow, doesn't seem to be nearing an end. Several filmmakers rallied behind Raanjhanaa director Aanand L Rai after he slammed production banner Eros International for this "gross violation", a move which he claims was made without his consent. What Eros Is Saying Ahead of the re-release of Ambikapathy, the Tamil dubbed version of Raanjhanaa, Pradeep Dwivedi, Group CEO, Eros Media World, in an exclusive interview with NDTV reiterated that Eros International is "the sole and exclusive copyright owner of Raanjhanaa" with full and exclusive rights to exhibit, adapt, and re-release the film in any format. Asked why the original creators of the film were not involved in narrative changes, Pradeep Dwivedi said, "While not legally required, Eros believes in fair engagement. In this case, despite the ongoing legal matter, our notice of creative intent was conveyed post-production to Mr Rai. We regret his response but stand by the decision to proceed responsibly and transparently. "We view Mr Rai's public outburst, especially timed just days after the regulatory disclosures advised previously, as a conscious attempt to shift focus away from the legal and governance issues he currently faces. It is unfortunate that a filmmaker of his stature would attempt to conflate legal accountability with creative victimhood." What Aanand L Rai Is Saying On Thursday, Aanand L Rai wrote a lengthy post on Instagram, expressing his displeasure over the AI-edited climax of Ambikapathy, the Tamil version of Raanjhanaa. While he didn't name Eros International, he stated that "None of us were consulted. None of us were heard" in the matter. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Aanand L Rai (@aanandlrai) "To watch Raanjhanaa, a film born out of care, conflict, collaboration, and creative risk, be altered, repackaged, and re-released without my knowledge or consent has been nothing short of devastating. What makes it worse is the complete ease and casualness with which it's been done. "Let me say this as clearly as I can: I do not support or endorse the AI-altered version of Raanjhanaa. It is unauthorised. I had no role in it. Neither did the team that made the film. And whatever it claims to be, it is not the film we intended, or made," the filmmaker wrote. While Aanand L Rai said the AI-supported ending of the film's Tamil version doesn't carry the spirit of the original they made, Pradeep Dwivedi of Eros Media World stated that the new version is a "reinterpretation". "Ethical Use Of AI," Says Eros "Creative reinterpretations-whether through alternate endings, remasters, or AI-are an established part of global cinema. This alternate version complements the original, which is still available. Ethical use of AI in this case did not erase or override original contributions but offers a wonderful new narrative lens," he added. Come tomorrow, when Ambikapathy releases in theatres with the alternate, happier, AI-edited ending, audiences will announce their verdict on which version they prefer: the not-so-perfect ending by director Aanand L Rai; or the AI-assisted one by producers Eros International.
