Bollywood veteran Sunny Deol confessed he felt \u2018hurt\u2019 when Akshay Kumar ignored his request to avoid the \u2018Gadar 2\u2019<\/em> and \u2018OMG 2\u2019<\/em> clash.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In his recent outing on ace filmmaker, Karan Johar\u2019s chat show\u00a0\u2018Koffee With Karan\u2019<\/em>, with younger brother Bobby Deol, Sunny shared that he personally contacted Akshay Kumar to change the release date of the \u2018OMG\u2019<\/em> sequel, in order to avoid a Box Office clash with his comeback film, but was turned away.<\/p>\n

\u201cI haven\u2019t had success for donkey\u2019s years. I didn\u2019t want anybody to come along with it, but you can\u2019t stop anybody. So obviously, it does hurt you,\u201d he said, speaking about the film.<\/p>\n

\n<\/blockquote>\n

Deol continued, \u201cThen I was like, \u2018It doesn\u2019t matter let\u2019s go along with it.\u2019 But initially, when things were not working out for the longest time, I thought if nobody would release alongside your film then you would at least get theatres.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked if he tried to have a chat with Kumar at that point, he replied, \u201cI asked him, \u2018Please don\u2019t do it if it\u2019s in your hands,\u2019 but he said no, the studio, and all that\u2026 and they said that anyway, two films can release, so I said, okay, go ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cI can just request; I can\u2019t do anything more than that,\u201d Deol added.<\/p>\n

It is pertinent to note here that Deol\u2019s comeback title \u2018Gadar 2\u2019<\/em> and Kumar\u2019s spiritual sequel to the satirical comedy, \u2018OMG\u2019<\/em>, were both theatrically released on August 11 this year.<\/p>\n

\u2018OMG 2\u2019<\/em> received positive reviews from critics and performed well at the ticket windows, whereas, \u2018Gadar 2\u2019<\/em> was a major commercial success, emerging as the third-highest-grossing Indian film of 2023.<\/p>\n
