Madhur Bhandarkar’s title war with KJo

Madhur Bhandarkar has requested Karan Johar and film producer Apoorva Mehta to change the name of their upcoming web show ‘Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives’. According to Bhandarkar, they tweaked the title of his upcoming project ‘Bollywood Wives’ when he refused to give the title to them.
Check out the tweet here:

He wrote, ‘Dear @karanjohar U & @apoorvamehta18 had asked me 4 the title #BollywoodWives for web, which I refused,as my project is underway. It is Morally & ethically wrong u to tweak it to #TheFabulousLivesofBollywoodWives. Pls do not dent my project. I humbly request u to change the title.’ The title is with Madhur from the past four years for a film and a web show.

Apart from the request via social media, Madhur Bhandarkar has also filed a complaint against Dharma Productions with Indian Motion Pictures Producers’ Association (IMPPA). After Madhur’s complaint, IMPPA wrote to Guild which responded by saying that they haven’t issued the title to the makers for the web series. IMPPA has now reportedly written a letter to Dharma Productions as well as the OTT platform asking them to change the title of their web series.
‘The Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives’ gives an inside view of the lives of the famous wives of Bollywood actors.

Karan and Apoorva are yet to reply to Bhandarkar’s allegations.
