Mumbai: Six-years ago, director Ken Ghosh and Shahid Kapur started their Bollywood journey together with Box Office blockbuster ‘Ishq Vishk.’ News has it that the duo which became close buddy are headed for a bitter split, all thanks to the starry ways and know-it-all-attitude of Shahid Kapur. Talking to a news daily, a close source from the sets of Shahid and Ken’s latest flick ‘Chance Pe Dance’ said, “Everything was hunky dory when ‘Chance Pe Dance’ (earlier titled Yahoo) went on the floors. The film took a long time to complete as the shooting was stalled when Jiah Khan was replaced by Genelia D’Souza. Meanwhile, as Shahid starred in a few films and grew in popularity, his attitude with the people he had known over the years took a turn for the worse. Many of his friends and colleagues were shocked at his changed behaviour. Ken too was shocked but he somehow took it in his stride and completed the film.” Elucidating on the Shahid-Ken spat, the source further maintained, “Shahid was working with prominent directors like Imtiaz Ali (‘Jab We Met’), Aziz Mirza (‘Kismet Connection’), Yash Raj Films (‘Dil Bole Hadippa’), Vishal Bhardwaj (‘Kaminey’) while ‘Chance Pe Dance’ was being made. Gradually, he started believing that he knew more than Ken because of which he started interfering a lot in the making of Ken’s film. Consequently, the two had their share of differences, which ultimately snowballed into serious issues.” Speaking on the speculation between the souring relationship between Shahid and Ken in Bollywood, the source further added, “Actually, quite a few film industrywallahs are aware of the differences between Shahid and Ken in the recent past. It’s just that nobody talks about it and Shahid and Ken too are not very vocal about their issues.” When enquired about his latest equation with Shahid, a stumped Ken said, “When ‘Ishq Vishk’ released, Shahid was 22. Today, he is 28. There is bound to be a change.” Phew….It seems success has gone to Shahid’s head!
