After Sonam-Kapoor criticised director Ali Abbas Zafar for announcing a remake of her father Anil-Kapoor's 1987 sci-fi film Mr India without asking him, the film's director Shekhar-Kapur expressed his concern about directors and their creative-rights in a series of tweets. He tweeted that he was not given the "creative rights" for the remake of the film and also wrote about going legal about it.
