Abhishek reveals Farhan stayed hands-off in Rock On

Abhishek Kapoor's 'Rock On!!' marked a harmonious collaboration with producer Farhan Akhtar, who trusted Kapoor's directorial vision without interference, a gesture that Kapoor deeply appreciated. However, during the sequel's development, disagreements emerged between the two, leading Kapoor to step away from 'Rock On 2'. Kapoor revealed that despite his involvement in crafting the framework of the script, differences in approach with Akhtar prompted them to part ways amicably, with Shujaat Saudagar taking the directorial reins instead. Following the success of 'Rock On!!', Kapoor went on to direct notable films like 'Kai Po Che!', Sushant Singh Rajput's debut, along with 'Fitoor', 'Kedarnath', and 'Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui', showcasing his versatility as a filmmaker. Despite the sequel's divergence, Kapoor's journey in cinema continues with a diverse range of impactful projects.
