Bipasha Basu is upset with director Rohan Sippy for ignoring her in the posters of Dum Maro Dum.

Bipasha Basu is not happy with director Rohan Sippy for giving more prominent place to Deepika Padukone in the posters of his upcoming film Dum Maro Dum despite the fact that Bipasha is the senior actress and the lead lady of the film while Deepika is much junior to her and will only make a guest appearance in the title track of the film.

Since Deepika’s performance on the title track of Dum Maro Dum has already become the talk of the town in Bollywood, the producers wants to take advantage of this and highlight it on the posters of the film. Reports suggest that after debating it on an extensive basis, Rohan has therefore decided that instead of the lead pair of Bipasha and Abhishek Bachchan, the first poster of the film should have Deepika’s face on it.

Bipasha was so upset to hear about the director’s decision to totally side-line her from the poster of the film that she even called-up the director and raised the issue with him. In his attempt to settle the issue with Bipasha and pacify her, the director has told the lead lady of his film that this poster will only feature as the teaser and assured her that Bipasha will be highlighted significantly in the subsequent posters.

Rohan is also of the view that the song Dum Maro Dum, from Dev Anand’s 1971 hit Hare Rama Hare Krishna is still a rage with the youth and by highlighting it appropriately, he can pull a lot of crowd to the theatres. But this is a very difficult situation for the director because alongside he also has to keep Bipasha in good spirits. After all being the female lead, it’s Bipasha, who has to promote the film and Rohan cannot afford to hear a No from her in this regard.
