For those not in the know, during a chat with Lehren Retro, Mukesh Bhatt had dismissed Divya\u2019s Jigra vs Savi allegations and said, &#8220;I don\u2019t know what Divya Khossla said and did for publicity I don\u2019t know. I think Mahesh made a film for Yash Johar Gumrah, which was copied from Bangkok Hilton. I think Jigra was inspired by that film. I made the film (Savi) which was adapted from Russel Crowe\u2019s The Next Three Days. I swapped the male lead\u2019s character with the female, which was played by Divya.\u201d He also added, &#8220;You may say something to the media to create controversy which could help you gain publicity.\u201d He defended Alia and said she is too big a star and doesn&#8217;t need to steal anything from anyone. <\/p>\n<p>Mukesh Bhatt Blasts Divya Khosla\u2019s Claims Of &#8216;Jigra&#8217; Copied &#8216;Savi&#8217;!<\/p>\n<p>wwwwwDays after Bhatt&#8217;s comments, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/divya-khosla-kumar\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Divya Khosla Kumar<\/a> has now confronted him on the same. She shared a recording of their conversation on social media. In this recording, Mukesh can be heard denying ever making such claims and suggesting that the uproar is part of a broader \u201cplanned&#8221; move intended to harm her. On Thursday, Divya uploaded the call recording to Instagram. In the audio, she confronts Mukesh directly, asking whether he had indeed accused her of creating a controversy for attention. Mukesh refutes it entirely, saying, \u201cNa mereko kisi ne pucha, na maine kisi ko bola (Neither someone asked me nor did I say it to anyone). This is again created by people who\u2019ve got vested interests.&#8221;Divya expresses how hurt she felt, particularly because the negative stories surfaced on her birthday. Mukesh Bhatt can be seen responding to her sympathetically, assuring her he said nothing defamatory and hinting that someone else might be engineering the situation. \u201cBeta, this is all planned. The fact that this happened on your birthday means somebody wants to hurt you and has intentionally planned this. First of all, I didn\u2019t know it was your birthday. Aur main aise harkat nahi karta; by now you know me, beta,&#8221; he tells her. He further points toward \u201cthe other camp&#8221; as a possible source and advises Divya to remain focused, adding that she has \u201ca good year planned ahead.&#8221;Along with the audio clip, Divya wrote that she was disturbed by what she had recently learned about the functioning of internal politics in the film industry. \u201cWhat I have recently discovered is disturbing and heartbreaking,&#8221; she said. \u201cIt is important to open this truth to the public\u2026 artists and fans have suffered under hierarchy, lobbying, and gatekeeping in our film industry.&#8221;She explained that releasing the call had become unavoidable, saying it was necessary to reveal the forces that try to \u201csabotage careers and push genuine talent out.&#8221;Interestingly, this stands in contrast to Mukesh Bhatt\u2019s earlier remarks in an interview with Lehren Retro, . At the time, he said, \u201cWhat Divya did for publicity, I don\u2019t know about that. To get some attention in the media, you can create some controversy. Everyone needs publicity, and for publicity, you need some controversy.&#8221; He had also defended <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/alia-bhatt\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Alia Bhatt<\/a>, insisting she would never \u201csteal ideas,&#8221; calling her intelligent, grounded, and above such actions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In a surprising development in the ongoing Savi vs Jigra controversy, producer Mukesh Bhatt\u2014who had earlier implied that&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":297110,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[10248,49,48,133670,75,133672,133674,337,133671,133675,133673],"class_list":{"0":"post-297109","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-alia-bhatt","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-canada","11":"tag-divya-khosla-kumar","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-internal-politics-in-bollywood","14":"tag-jigra","15":"tag-movies","16":"tag-mukesh-bhatt","17":"tag-savi","18":"tag-savi-vs-jigra-controversy"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/297109","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=297109"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/297109\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/297110"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=297109"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=297109"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=297109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
