What did Rajkumar Hirani say about the plot of Munnabhai Chale America and Dunki?

During the interview, Rajkumar was asked if the storyline of Munnabhai Chale America and Dunki were similar as it also revolved around Circuit and Munnabhai wishing to go to America. Reacting to the rumours, he said, "No, that was a completely different story. That story was basically in a nutshell about George Bush that time had made some statement, some anti-Muslim statement he had made, and the whole story was these guys got very upset with it, and they said ‘hum jaate hain George Bush ko pakad ke India le kar aate hain (We’ll go to America and bring George Bush to India)’ toh it was a story like that."

He further continued, "And to go to America they said ‘fir wahan hum usse baat kaise karenge, English seekhte hain (So after going to America they wondered how would they talk to him so they thought of learning English)’, so we made a trailer of learning English for a while but that was a completely fictional unreal story. Yeah, the common aspect was there those guys were learning English here also they are learning English but for absolutely different reasons, there is no other commonality."
