Karthik Aryan's Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 clashed with Ajay Devgan's Singham Again. This film was released on 1 November on the occasion of Diwali. Now recently, T-Series owner Bhushan Kumar has made serious allegations against Ajay Devgan and Rohit Shetty in an interview. He called the team of Singham Again unfair.
In a recent conversation with Connect Cine, Bhushan Kumar revealed, before the release of 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3' and 'Singham Again', I had an argument with the team of Singham Again regarding the equal sharing of the screen. I believed that both these films are big, hence both should get equal screen space. I wanted fairness in this matter, but due to some personal interests it could not happen. The team of Singham Again was unfair regarding this. However, I don't want to blame the theater chain, as they were the distributors of the second film and had some issues. Even after this he supported us.
Bhushan Kumar said, 'I had suggested to start advance booking, so that the response of the film could be seen. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, despite being a big film, opened with more than Rs 36 crore. Actually, both the films earned well.
Regarding the clash between the films, Bhushan Kumar said that both the teams were trying to avoid the clash. But it was not possible for any film to change its release date. He told Ajay Devgan and Rohit Shetty that he had announced Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 earlier and he had some deals with OTT platforms, so he could not pursue the film. The team of Singham Again understood this, but they also had their own reasons as the theme of their film was related to Ramayana, and they could not miss releasing on Diwali.
T-Series had put a strike on the title track of Singham Again When the title track of Singham Again was released on YouTube, soon after T-Series issued a copyright strike on that video.

After this, director Rohit Shetty had to remove the title track from all social media platforms. The song had to be re-edited and uploaded to YouTube again. According to media reports, the title track of Singham Again included more than 10 seconds of the theme of the film Singham, whereas as per the copyright policy, any song containing more than three seconds of elements cannot be claimed as copyright.
