All actors back the producers

With the Producers’ Body in Bollywood deciding stop the release of new films in multiplexes from April 3 onwards, the actors have also pledged their allegiance to the producers. Top stars like Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Saif Ali Khan and the likes have sent a letter to the producers’ body that they will support them and not the multiplex owners in this issue.

It is worth mentioning here that it is not a surprise considering the fact that most of the actors have their own production houses. The rift between the producers and the multiplex owners is stemmed from the profit sharing issues.

Videsh Got A Certificate

Bollywood flick Videsh, which will hit the marquee on March 27th, has got an A certificate. Videsh, incidentally, has Preity Zinta in the lead and is directed by Deepa Mehta. According to Sanjay Bhutiani, the CEO of BR Films, the censor board decided to give an A certificate because of the few scenes that were considered to be brutal and hence not appropriate for children. Bhutiani said that the essence of Videsh would be lost if the scenes were chopped off.

The story of Videsh is of a young woman married to an NRI whom she has never met and the torture that she is subjected to in her marital home.
