Aap Ki Khatir (transl. For your sake) is a 2006 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy film directed by Dharmesh Darshan, starring Akshaye Khanna and Priyanka Chopra along with Ameesha Patel, Dino Morea, Sunil Shetty and Anupam Kher. An unofficial remake of the 2005 American film The Wedding Date,[2] it was released on 25 August 2006 and became a disaster at the box office[3] as well as Darshan's final film as a director.
Aap Ki Khatir is such a faithful rip-off of The Wedding Date that the films look like twins. Right from the first scene, when the heroine sleepily responds to the answering machine, to a climax full of confession and confusion, Aap Ki Khatir is a replica with no mind of its own. Plagiarism is not new.
