GROUPS PROTEST AGAINST THIS UPCOMING MOVIE EVEN BEFORE START OF SHOOT!
Home > Hindi Movies > Hindi Cinema NewsBy Bharadan | Feb 06, 2018
Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut's upcoming film Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi is, as the title suggests, about the Rani Laxmibai, the famous queen who ruled Jhansi. The film is biographical, and thus has invited surveillance and attack by groups which have started opposing it even before its principal filming.
According to reports, the state president of a right-wing fringe outfit called Sarva Brahmin Mahasabha (one of such groups) has claimed that the filmmakers have been shooting a love song featuring Kangana and a British person playing the role of an agent of the East India Company.
Alleging that it distorts historical facts, he has asked that the government of Rajasthan to halt the film's shoot, and ensure that such distortion does not happen by ordering the crew to provide an undertaking affirming the same and that the film will feature no controversial scenes.
They also threaten to escalate their agitation if their demands are not met.
''THIS IS AN UNFORTUNATE ISSUE, PLEASE DON'T SUPPORT ME'', HRITHIK
Home > Hindi Movies > Hindi Cinema NewsBy Arvind Sundaram | Oct 10, 2017
It all started in January 2016, when Kangana Ranaut termed Hrithik Roshan as her 'silly ex,' which didn't entirely go well with the Krrish actor. Since then, there have been constant accusations, against each other, which is a never-ending controversy.
Hrithik has issued an official statement on his social media forum about this issue. His post read, "I am writing this in response to the several interviews requests that I am getting from various media houses. I have given two. Due to the media dynamics of our times, there is a justified pressure on me to give more.
Print. Digital. Various other languages. Platforms that will give me much much wider reach. I would apologize to those who have made these well-meaning requests and would humbly say that I don't wish to speak on this issue. I have had to give out my side of truth, under some very compelling circumstances.
In the interest of civility and human dignity, we should not make a spectacle of this issue. Media is an integral part of our civil society, and they would know that continued discourse on this issue is gaining toxic dimensions.
I am no one to suggest what media should cover or not but if this under investigation case is factually covered through the developments of police investigation and courts, that would be a breather for a lot of us.
I am extremely thankful to people who have supported me in this painfully unfortunate episode. But my request to all friends and observers would be to stop taking sides in this issue. This is an unfortunate issue and not a contest of sorts. Before this is dangerously hijacked into a man vs. woman, insider vs. outsider, privileged vs. non privileged issue, we must stop. Please don't support me. Don't take sides.
I am by no means seeking to close this issue. The only thing I am suggesting is to let the investigations be the only spokesperson in this issue henceforth."
