The Guild pointed out that this is not the first time that fringe elements have “unilaterally taken the law into their own hands to disrupt shoots/film releases and cause tremendous financial losses to film producers.”
“The film ‘Jodhaa Akbar’ was also not permitted to release in Rajasthan by the same group despite censor certification.
“It is a glaring paradox that on the one hand the Central Government, various State Governments along with the film fraternity has been leaving no stone unturned to universally project India as an attractive shooting locale and on the other such hands miscreants are resorting to hooliganism of the worst order to defeat the ‘Shoot in India’ endeavour,” the statement read.
