Filmmaker-actor Farhan Akhtar says though he does not know much about what went into the AI-altered re-release of Raanjhanaa, his loyalty will always be with the creator of the film.

Both director Anand L Rai and Dhanush, who made his Hindi cinema debut with the 2013 movie, have spoken out against production banner Eros International’s decision to create an alternate ‘happy ending’ for the movie through the help of artificial intelligence.

“I will always stand with the creator of the film and (if) the creator of the film is unhappy about his or her work being changed, I will always support the creator. So, that’s where my loyalty lies. The rest of the fine print of what happened there, I have no (idea), but that’s all I can say,” Akhtar says.
