Two films were shown in the theater on 1 November. The first was ‘Singham Again’ and the second was ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’. There was a cold war between the makers of these movies. First regarding the screens and then regarding the original theme of ‘Singham’. The clash of these films was much talked about. ‘Singham Again’ is Ajay Devgan’s film and ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ is directed by Anees Bazmee.
Now a film is being released, whose hero is Ajay and the director is Anees. The name of the film is ‘Naam’. Just imagine, a few days ago both of their films were clashing and now their picture is coming together. There is something more amazing with this film. ‘Naam’ was shot in 2004. It is being released after 20 years.
Same old Ajay Devgan
‘Naam’ is a thriller film. A professional killer loses his memory. The film is based on the drama that begins after this. The trailer of the film has arrived. In this you will see Ajay Devgan of the beginning of the 21st century. The same blackness will be visible in their teeth. Hair will be visible on his forehead in the same way. Seeing his look, films like ‘Apharan’ and ‘Golmaal’ will be remembered. Bhumika Chawla will remind you of ‘Tere Naam’. ‘Naam’ also stars Sameera Reddy, Rajpal Yadav and Yashpal Sharma. After all, why is this picture being released after 20 years?
The film was to be released in 2008
The film was shot in Switzerland around 2004. It was to be released in 2008. If you watch the trailer of the film, there is mention of Anees and Ajay Devgan’s two films ‘Pyaar To Hona Hi Tha’ and ‘Deewangi’. Means ‘Naam’ is the project after these two films. Himesh Reshammiya and Sajid-Wajid have given the music of the film. However, the matter was not resolved in 2008. It was said that the picture was shelved.
Producer’s wife had to go to jail
This film was made by producer Dinesh Patel, who launched Ajay Devgan with ‘Phool Aur Kaante’. The earlier title of this film was ‘Benaam’. Later it was changed to ‘Naam’. In 2013, there was also news of Dinesh Patel’s wife being arrested. Actually Vandana Jain had invested money in this film. The film was not released. His money was lost. He said that Dinesh has Rs 1 crore with him. He had given the loan to Dinesh in the name of his wife Snigdha. Because of this, his wife had to go to jail instead of Dinesh. According to Vandana, 85 percent of the film was shot in 2006. Dinesh asked him for money to shoot the remaining film. He also gave it, but did not get his money back.
Tried to release it twice before
However, Dinesh Patel tried to release ‘Naam’ in 2014 also. But due to the death of the producer the film got stuck once again. After this, Dinesh’s wife and daughter contacted Anil Rungta for ‘Naam’. Plans were made to release the film in 2020. But due to Covid it could not be brought to theaters again. Now finally ‘Naam’ is going to be released on 22nd November in 2024.
Ajay Devgan is not promoting the film
Anees Bazmee and Ajay Devgan have not promoted this film anywhere. Even for formality, he has not shared the trailer or poster of this film on his social media. Ajay Devgan has not even said anything on this. Anees Bazmee has spoken. He told that he started this film in 2004. He has even forgotten about the ‘name’. But now this film is being released again, he has no problem with it. The producer’s money will come out and what’s more!
There will be competition with ‘Karan-Arjun’
Another old film is being released on 22nd November. This film is Salman Khan and Shahrukh Khan’s ‘Karan Arjun’. It is also being promoted a lot. In such a situation, there may be no benefit in releasing ‘Naam’ after 20 years, and this picture may fail in front of ‘Karan Arjun’. Who has seen the rest tomorrow!
