Here's What Made Anil Kapoor Say ‘Abhay Deol Needs Help’ (Details Inside)

Fans enjoy drama, let's face it, and the entertainment industry is all about entertainment. There are still those celebrities who call a spade a spade, even though most have stopped making snide remarks about their peers. Abhay Deol is a prime example, who did not take Anil Kapoor's insults about him lying down.

Together, Sonam Kapoor and Abhay worked on the film 'Aisha,' which essentially proclaimed the actress the ultimate fashionista of Bollywood. Sonam is AK's daughter. The actor, though, seemed unimpressed. However, things took a turn for the worst when Mr. Kapoor said some odd things about Abhay.

Once Anil Kapoor appeared on ‘Koffee With Karan,’ and talked about Abhay, “Abhay Deol needs help, he is trying to do all the wrong things. In every way. There’s something terribly wrong with the guy.”

The ‘Raanjhanaa’ actor took the remark seriously and reverted, “He’s right about me doing ‘all the wrong things.’ Aisha is the biggest proof of that. And yes I do ‘need help’. Help not getting affected by people like him. He’s a waste of my time.”

Numerous fans hypothesised that the animosity between Abhay Deol and Anil Kapoor sprang from the film 'Aisha.' While the latter co-produced it, the former co-starred in it. However, Abhay opted not to actively promote the movie like Sonam Kapoor did. He had reportedly stated, “When I was shooting, I realised that the film was more about clothes than actual acting. I even read reviews of the movie that praised the clothes. I would like to say today that I will never ever be part of a film like Aisha in my lifetime. It’s not the kind of film I’d like to do. Too much energy was wasted on styling, but as an actor, I don’t have much say.”

Sonam Kapoor did not like any of this, and she appeared stunned by Abhay's remarks. The conflict between the Kapoor and Deol families most likely resulted from their disparate professional backgrounds. Anyhow, the actors later appeared in 'Raanjhanaa' again.
