No laughing matter this!

 

At a recent award function, producer Vipul Shah jokingly said on stage that couldn't unveil the trailer of his upcoming Akshay Kumar starrer, Holiday, as the music is not ready. Now this was far from truth as Pritam had already delivered the songs to Vipul. This wisecrack resulted in fans riling against the composer on a social networking site for his late latif ways.

According to a source, when Pritam woke up to these comments, he took a screenshot and texted it to Vipul. The producer admitted to Mirror that Pritam was upset because it was being misconstrued as him unprofessionalism. "I explained to him that it was just a joke but he groused that people didn't understand such jokes and I should have been more careful," says Vipul.

Vipul said that the controversy was unnecessary and blown out of proportion. "I shouldn't have said what I did. I have already clarified with Pritam over the phone. He is not upset with me and there is no bad blood between us."
