Nadiadwala admitted that despite the two-minute nod, it took Kunder and him almost a year to fine-tune the project.
A few days after the producer's New York visit, there were reports that following an interview Kunder had given a Mumbai tabloid, Farah Khan had sent her apologies to Nadiadwala. The debutant director had apparently told the tabloid he would never work with Nadiadwala again, owing to the difficulties he faced while shooting. A source close to both men insisted that the conflicts and misunderstandings were minimal.
"But then every director, particularly a first timer, becomes very possessive of his film," the source pointed out. "Even the best of Hollywood directors including Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola have had disagreements with their producers. That is why many years after the release of a film like Apocalypse Now does Coppola come out with a director's cut," the source added.
