As per the source, “Sajid is considering a title change to avoid hurting any religious sentiments. However, Salman is of the opinion that the film is made; with the right intentions and has the heart at the right place.

An insider points out, “His father is Muslim. His mother is Hindu. Helen Aunty is a Catholic. Salman’s family is a living example of communal amity. The film’s plot will be similar. It will portray the ups and downs in a family which celebrates both Eid and Diwali with equal fervor”. The source added that it will be the Radhe actor’s homage to the enduring spirit of oneness and brotherhood.
“It will be Salman’s homage to the enduring spirit of oneness and brotherhood; a counterpoint to the currently vitiated atmosphere in the country. Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali will take the cinematic experience back to the days of films; like Yash Chopra’s Dharmputra and Dhool Ka Phool. It addresses the issue of Hindu-Muslim amity” says the source.
