KriArj Entertainment has been in the middle of controversies, thanks to Prernaa Arora’s tiff with films like Kedarnath, Paramanu, Batti Gul Meter Chalu and now Fanne Khan. The producer lady recently lost out the legal battle with John Abraham starrer Parmanu. This resulted in Prernaa being kicked out of Shahid Kapoor-Shraddha Kapoor starrer Batti Gul Meter Chalu. The latest development is that the production house has also been dropped out of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan-Anil Kapoor-Rajkummar Rao starrer Fanne Khan. Bhushan Kumar will solely produce this movie along with Batti Gul Meter Chalu.
Bhushan told DNA, “I will now produce both; Batti Gul Meter Chalu (along with Shree Narayan Singh and Nitin Chandrachud) and Fanne Khan (jointly with Rakeyshji). We want to ensure that both the films are shot as per the locked schedule. Both the directors Shree Narayan and Atul Manjrekar are set to complete BGMC and Fanne Khan as planned. BGMC shooting has resumed on Friday. We will soon complete the two remaining songs of Fanne Khan and ready it for release on July 13.”
There were several payment issues as they were delayed by the production house. This led to postponement of the film from June 15 to July 13. Thanks to Bhushan Kumar’s contribution of Rs 6 crore, the film is back on track and will get released on the said slot. In an earlier interview to Mumbai Mirror, the producer had revealed that Prernaa wants to sort out her legal problems before she continues making films again. Well, with the kind of marathon battle she has been indulged in with several movies at a time, she’d better do that!
