Neerja filmmakers accused of criminal conspiracy
Sonam Kapoor starrer Neerja impressed both audiences and critics with its impeccable storyline and Sonam’s par excellence acting in the film. The film was a biopic drama about late air hostess Neerja Bhanot who saved the life of travellers during a terrorist hijack of a Pan-Am flight and eventually dies.
Rumours of Neerja Bhanot’s family having issues with film had been doing rounds. Now, according to a leading daily, Neerja Bhanot’s family has filed a petition against the makers of the film in Chandigarh High Court for criminal conspiracy.
Talking about the same, Bhanot family’s legal advisor Hemant Saini, shared, “The parties entered into an agreement which promised the family 10 per cent profits, over and above the initial stipulated amount. Now, the producers are indicating that the contract referred to the percentage made by Bling alone, and not by both the producers. They claim that the amount the family is demanding belongs to Fox, which, they say, is not a party to the agreement. They say most of the profits have gone to the studio and they can only give what they have.”
It's sad to hear that movie is recently making news for all the unwanted reasons.
