Conflicting claims about 'Kambakkht Ishq' going to CannesAs we reported on May 11, producer Sajid Nadiadwala has said that because of the ongoing producers and distributors vs multiplexes conflict, he’s won’t be taking his Akshay-Kareena starrer “Kambakkht Ishq” to the Cannes Film Festival (May 13-24, 2009) (Kambakkht Ishq team not going to Cannes).
Meanwhile, we have received a press release from Eros International, the London listed producer and distributor of Bollywood films, claiming that it will be announcing three exciting, international film projects at Cannes Film Festival, 2009 – “Kambakkht Ishq”, “Love Aaj Kal” and “Aladin”
Commenting on Eros International’s showcases at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, Sunil Lulla, Executive Director and President – India, says: “With the multi-faceted global fan base of Indian cinema standing at 3.6 billion, we want to be at the forefront of meeting the ever-increasing demands of audiences by pioneering innovative film content... It has been our objective to increase the level of expectancy for the films of our genre year after year, 2009 being of no exception as with great pride we introduce three extraordinary film projects at Cannes.”
Confused? We surely are.
One party which is not confused at all is the “Kites” team. Producer Rakesh Roshan, director Anurag Basu and film’s cast members Hrithik Roshan and Barbara Mori will be in Cannes.
Producer Rakesh Roshan will be screening his latest film only for potential buyers from the West. He will also screen a special teaser of the film as well.
