Race 2 makers see red over spoof
Despite all its disclaimers, the spoof of Race 2, has not gone down well with the makers of the original film. Though it was all done in jest with no malicious intentions whatsoever, those associated with the Abbas-Mustan starrer came down heavily on those behind the spoof.
“This is a two-and-a-half minute long spoof which is in a run on mode with the actual promo of the film. While the background score, songs and the visuals have been kept intact, the dialogues have been dubbed and some funny captions have been added as well. Titled DisgRACE 2, it comes with a disclaimer that says for ‘fun purposes only’ with ‘no intention of hurting anyone’. But just when it started to go viral on YouTube, it was removed from the site on grounds of copyright violation,” informs an observer. Also, since the spoof has come way too close to the film’s release, the makers are not pleased with the negative publicity.
Guess the “race” just got tougher. Let’s wait and watch to see which one’s a bigger hit.
