The ongoing dispute between production house Pooja Entertainment and filmmaker Ali Abbas Zafar has taken a new turn, with Vashu Bhagnani and his son Jackky Bhagnani filing a complaint against Zafar over alleged fund misappropriation.
This development comes just days after Zafar filed his complaint against Pooja Entertainment, alleging non-payment of Rs 7.30 crores in fees for the upcoming film, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan.
According to reports, Vashu Bhagnani and Jackky Bhagnani have accused Zafar of misappropriating funds and siphoning off subsidy funds provided by Abu Dhabi authorities allocated for the production of Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. They claim that Zafar used the funds for personal expenses and other unauthorized purposes.
The core of the complaint centres on Zafar’s alleged misuse of these funds, which were intended to support the film’s production.
The Bhagnanis, the owners of Pooja Entertainment, claim that Zafar diverted the subsidy funds for personal or unauthorized use, rather than using them for the intended purpose of financing the film’s production. This allegation has significantly escalated the dispute between the two parties.
Pooja Entertainment has registered a complaint with the Economic Offenses Wing (EOW) of the Mumbai Police. The EOW is currently investigating the matter and gathering evidence to determine the veracity of the allegations.
The clash between Pooja Entertainment and Ali Abbas Zafar highlights the challenges and complexities of the film industry. The dispute serves as a reminder of the importance of transparency, accountability, and fair business practices in the entertainment business.
