Hrithik Roshan’s upcoming film finds itself in legal hassles
However, the makers are yet to finalize the lead actress. Later, when he was told that he wouldn’t be given any credit for the writing or the screenplay, Sudhanshu refused to go ahead with the project. Sudhanshu, who has spent “two-and-a-half years” on the script titled “Farmayish”, says that it was supposed to be his debut production under his own production house “Raw Stock Production Private Limited”.
A report in DNA quoted a source as saying that the script had first gone to Ekta Kapoor, but then when Sanjay Gupta met Hrithik, Sudhanshu and Ekta were left out of the picture with the Roshans wanting to produce it. Collectively, we met with Balaji Telefilms and pitched the story to them, they immediately consented to join us as co-producers. As far as the big guns are concerned, neither Hrithik nor Rakesh Roshan has confirmed anything about going ahead with the film. “This was not acceptable to me and I walked out”, he informed.
Now, Vijay Kumar Mishra, a writer, has put out a public notice in a trade magazine calling Sudhanshu’s claims false. On November 28, he had filed a complaint with Indian Film and Television Producers Council.
Sanjay Gupta is known for his name-dropping habits and John Abraham has been one of the victims. For latest Bollywood updates follow us on G+ The Times of India Entertainment Vakil will now be submitting all the documents and interactions between Gupta, Roshan and her client, and demand a comparison of both scripts.
While Sanjay Gupta doesn’t deny meeting Sudhanshu over a script, he claims that the two scripts do not match. While Gupta has announced the project on Twitter, Rakesh said, “I have not officially announced the project”.
