Production
The film, which was earlier titled AK vs SK, was written by Avinash Sampath in 2013.[5] Earlier, Shahid Kapoor and Anurag Kashyap were supposed to play themselves in the film, which did not work out.[6]
Reception
Anupama Chopra of Film Companion called AK vs AK a “worthy experiment” adding that the film is “watchable but like so many meta movies, it eventually trips on its own cleverness and hits a dead end.”[7]
Controversy
The Indian Air Force had objected and asked the makers to withdraw a scene in the film where Kapoor is shown cursing Kashyap dressed in a Air Force uniform. Kapoor later posted a video offering his apology for hurting anyone's sentiment.[8]
