Ektaa Kapoor, Raaj Shaandilyaa
Akshay Kumar, Manoj Bajpayee and Paresh Rawal were all set to start filming for Bhagam Bhag 2 this month. The shoot of Bhagam Bhag 2 has hit an unexpected roadblock after legal tensions surfaced between filmmaker Raaj Shaandilyaa and producer Ektaa Kapoor. Amid reports that a legal notice stalled the film’s schedule over an alleged breach of contract, Raaj has now issued a strong statement addressing the controversy.
A source informed Bollywood Hungama, “Ektaa Kapoor has filed a legal case against Raaj Shaandilyaa for breach of contract. Raaj had signed a three-film deal with Ektaa and has now gone ahead to do not one but two films outside her banner. This has irked Ektaa, as Raaj didn’t take an NOC from her, nor did he refund the advance taken to direct the third project under her banner.”
