Not many people know that this week's release 'Gandhi My Father' was earlier supposed to be produced by Aditya Chopra. The film's director Feroz Abbas Khan had approached Yash Raj Films with the subject and Adi was keen on making this film, but thought it may spark some controversy and hence dropped the idea.
It was later, that Anil Kapoor stepped in the producer's shoes to complete this film. Coincidentally, 'Gandhi My Father' and Yash Raj Films' 'Chakde India' are releasing back to back.
