First both collided when Manoj Kumar was shown in a funny way in OSO, now Farah Khan and Manoj Kumar are at loggerheads again, because of Farah’s comment about Manoj’s flick Clerk, referring to it as “a treasure chest of ham scenes”.
Manoj Kumar reacting to Farah’s comments, says, “Ham means pig. I am still a student of cinema. Farah is bubbly and successful and she is entitled to her opinion. I wish her well but those who think that they have become masters (after becoming successful) are wrong. Go back and take a look at the choreographers who ruled the roost in my era. I think Farah should first learn to spell choreography. Keeping the same background and repeating the same shots is not choreography. It means that a song should take the story forward. If you don’t know that, you have no right to choreograph a song.”
“Nowadays, writers copy old films and nonchalantly walk away with awards. I have no respect for anybody who is not original, irrespective of the fate of his/her product at the box-office,”
“What films has Farah made? Main Hoon Na? Good. But Om Shanti Om was just idli, sambar and dosa of Madhumati, Mahal and many other films.”
However Farah kept mum on this issue, saying, “I have high regard for Manoj Kumar.”
