Recently, Ali Abbas Zafar joined the list of people who filed a complaint against the production house, Pooja Entertainment, for non-payment of dues. In retaliation to the complaint, the production house filed a counterclaim against director/producer Ali Abbas Zafar and partner Himanshu Mehra, who have a very clean track record, accusing them of trying to malign their image. They’ve stated that Zafar, along with Mehra and finance head Ekesh Ranadive, misappropriated the subsidy funds they received from Abu Dhabi authorities during the shoot of the film.
As soon as the news spread, ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’ crew members took to social media to state that the accusations against Ali Abbas Zafar are false. Khalid, who worked as an actor in `Bade Miyan Chote Miyan`, shared that he, like many crew members of the film, had to “beg” Pooja Entertainment for his payment. He said he also spoke to Jackky Bhagnani regarding the payment, but after assurances that he would be paid, the actor-producer “blocked” him.
