'Helicopter Eela': Why Ajay Devgn apologized to Swanand Kirkire
Kajol starrer 'Helicopter Eela' fell prey to controversy soon after the trailer released, for not crediting lyricist Swanand Kirkire in the title-plate. The irony that the trailer was mostly cut on songs and yet failed to credit the lyricist didn't escape comedian and screenwriter Varun Grover, who tweeted about it. Ajay Devgn, the producer, rushed to rectify it and apologized.

Kirkire accepted the apology and thanked Devgn for his grace. It seems all is well with the movie, now.
