'This car is so bad that it looks like something that would result if a donkey f***ed a rickshaw ufffd' is a line from Aamir Khan productions' Delhi Belly.

This dialogue is said in reference to a red car that looks like Santro. Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL), that Santro belongs to, is now planning to take a legal action against the production house.

The HMIL spokesperson has admitted to considering taking legal action against the producers, Aamir Khan productions and UTV Motion Pictures, for defamation.

The company, however, is looking into the film clips, to decide on further action.

However, the spokesperson of Aamir Khan production says they are not willing to react until they hear from the company, or receive any intimation from them.

Interestingly, there is a twist to the story.

Not long ago, Shah Rukh Khan was the brand ambassador for Santro Zing and appeared in its commercials along with Preity Zinta. So will this create a bigger rift between the already existing Aamir-SRK rivalry?
