Bhaiyyaji Superhit shelved

After Ghayal 2 and The Man, Bhaiyyaji Superhit is Sunny Deol's third film which has come to a standstill. The movie might be shelved, as a result of differences between the director Neeraj Pathak and producer Fauzia Arshi.

A source revealed, "THERE HAVE BEEN differences between the producer and director because the movie was going over budget right after the primary schedule and Neeraj approached Subhash Ghai, without the producer Fauzia's knowledge who's producing the film under the banner of Daily Multimedia Ltd & Metro Movies. The producer was shocked with the scoop of her project being produced by another person when she holds the rights and has no plans to co-produce it."

When contacted producer Fauzia in regards to the movie, she said, "I'M REALLY NOT planning to shelve this project. I'VE put it on hold currently. This movie will go on floors when the script and budget is in place."

She adds, "WHEN WE finished 15 days of shooting which went well, director Neeraj Pathak asked me to extend the budget by Rs. 6 crores. That's a large amount! He has an even story but till I DO NOT get a certain budget, and shooting script in hand, I WOULD NOT have the ability to let the movie go on floors."

Did you speak to Neeraj for taking the project to Subhash Ghai? She said, "Yes, I did. He said he just spoke and mentioned concerning the project and there need to be some misunderstanding. The film is all mine and i've the rights for a similar. I USED TO BE shocked on seeing Subhash Ghai's statement within the paper. I'm assuming it's some misunderstanding as told to me by Neeraj."

Fauzia also tried contacting Ghai after the inside track of manufacturing her film appeared within the paper. But he never replied.

Neeraj Pathak remained unavailable for comment.
