Most lyricists would have been happy to see their names in the credits for the biopic on PM Modi. But veteran lyricist and poet Javed Akhtar was not amused and for a good reason: his name figures on the film poster under the head ‘lyrics’ even though he has not nothing to do with the movie.
Shocked at the discovery, Akhtar took to twitter to post a screenshot of the credits on the film poster and wrote “Am shocked to find my name on the poster of this film. Have not written any songs for it!” For some inexplicable reason, Akhtar does not want to touch the movie with a barge pole.
