Most of B-town has chosen to keep mum on the recent Uri attacks and the growing tensions between India and Pakistan.Only a select few have come out in support of the army and mourned the death of soldiers while some have taken up for colleagues across the border and the recent ban on them. At an event to launch the music of the 3D stereoscopic animated film, Motu Patlu, for which he has penned the lyrics, Gulzar lost his cool when asked to comment on the issue.
The event took place in a suburban school with kids grooving to the title track. A source present at the event reveals that an angry Gulzar retorted, "Is this relevant to the programme? Aap agar shaadi mein jaayein, aur baat fron tier ki karne YOGEN SHAH lagein, theek lagega? We should talk about the film and not the soldiers here.Be relevant to the occasion."
Still upset, the veteran then went on to cancel all interviews. Says the source, "There were more than 25 interactions that had been slated post the event. But he was clearly ticked off and walked out."
The film is set to release on October 14. Also present at the event were filmmakers Vishal Bhardwaj, who has composed the music, and Ketan Mehta.
