Deepika Padukone starrer "Piku" and Sunny Leone starrer "Kuch Kuch Locha Hai" are set to clash at the box office this Friday. However, Ram Kapoor who plays the lead role in the Sunny Leone starrer, is unfazed about such comparison and says both the films have their own target audiences.

He hopes people would like both the films.

"I don't think so there is any competition between both the films - "Piku" and "Kuch Kuch Locha Hai" - as both of these have different target audiences. So neither of these two will affect each other's business. Both the films are very different and have different target groups," the actor said here in an interview.

While "Kuch Kuch Locha Hai" is about a 45-year-old married man who witnesses turmoil in his life after he gets a chance to meet a Bollywood star (played by Sunny Leone in the film), whom he has always fantasised about, "Piku", directed by Shoojit Sircar, is a comedy-drama and explores a daughter-father relationship. Besides Deepika, it also features megastar Amitabh Bachchan and Irrfan.

Further, he wishes all success to the Deepika and Big B starrer and can't wait to watch the film when it releases.

"I would like to wish "Piku" all the best and want it to become successful and this is what I expect for our own film as well because at the end of the day every film's success is better for the film industry," Ram Kapoor said.

"I am a big fan of Bachchan sahab (Amitabh Bachchan) Deepika Padukone and Irrfan so I will definitely watch "Piku"," he added.
