While Abhishek is directing 'Dolly ki Doli', Balki is the director of 'Shamitabh'.

On this Balki said, "Come on, this is not a cricket match that you are talking of a clash between Dogra and me. In fact, I am proud and happy that he is making his debut as a director."

Abhishek said, "The two films belong to completely different genres and so the target audience will not be the same. Moreover, I had nothing to do with the release date of my film, a romcom.It was decided by my producer Arbaaz Khan."

 He further adds, "He texted me saying: `May your film rock this year. All my love and support for you'. That just goes shows what a great person he is."
