EXCLUSIVE: Vashu Bhagnani vs Tips-Dhawans row gets UGLIER; a source hits back, "Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai has NOTHING to do with Biwi No. 1; Dhawans paid Rs. 16 cr. from their own pocket to save Coolie No. 1 vendors from suffering"

Vashu Bhagnani vs Tips-Dhawans Row Escalates

A recent press conference held by Vashu Bhagnani has sparked a heated debate in the Bollywood industry. Bhagnani alleged that producer Ramesh Taurani of Tips cannot use songs from his film, Biwi No 1, in their upcoming movie, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. Moreover, he claimed that the story of Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai bears similarities to Biwi No 1.

In response to these allegations, a source from the other side has come forward to provide a contrasting narrative. According to the source, Bhagnani has lost a case in the Supreme Court, which has emboldened the Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai team to proceed with their trailer launch. The source also denied Bhagnani's claims that Varun Dhawan was committed to working on Biwi No 1 Part 2, stating that Varun had never signed any such film with Puja Entertainment.

The source further countered Bhagnani's statement about being a namesake producer on Coolie No 1, claiming that the Dhawans had paid nearly Rs. 16 crores from their own pocket to clear vendor dues. This was done to protect their reputation and ensure that people who worked on the film were not left helpless.

Claims and Counterclaims

Bhagnani's allegations have been met with skepticism, with the source questioning the validity of his claims. The source pointed out that David Dhawan was never paid Rs. 70 crores, as Bhagnani had claimed, and that there was no proof to support this statement. The source also highlighted the timing of Bhagnani's allegations, which coincided with the trailer launch and release campaign of Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai.

The controversy surrounding Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai and Biwi No 1 continues to unfold. With the trailer launch of Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai scheduled to take place, it remains to be seen how the situation will develop. One thing is certain, however: the Bollywood industry will be watching this drama with great interest.
