Sanjay Raut plans film on ‘Diary of Maharashtra Khokha’

Published

on

 Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut said he is planning to make a feature film detailing the saga of how the erstwhile Maha Vika Aghadi (MVA) government in Maharashtra was toppled in June 2022 with the alleged lure of ‘khokhas’ (slang for crore rupees) here on Friday.

Talking to the media, Raut said that the film will be titled ‘Diary of Maharashtra Khokha’ and promised that it will be a ‘historical movie’ to hit the silver screens.

“There are already films like ‘The Kerala Story’ or ‘The Kashmir Files’ so now I am planning to make a real story on the role played by ‘khokhas’ that led to the collapse of the state government here…” said Raut.

With a mischievous smile, Raut said that he may hire film-maker Vivek Agnihotri for the venture and the film would have less people and more ‘khokhas’.

After the MVA government of ex-CM Uddhav Thackeray was toppled, the Opposition Congress, Nationalist Congress Party and Sena (UBT) had alleged that at least “50 Khokhas” (implying Rs 50-crore) were paid to break the 40 MLAs of the original Shiv Sena.

Attacking Chief Minister Eknath Shinde’s Shiv Sena which pulled the rug from under the Thackeray, Raut said that the Shinde party is doomed for allying with the Bharatiya Janata Party.

“The Shinde group is not a party but a chicken coop of the BJP and it will be ‘cut’ at one shot… Then, there will be no more ‘cock cock, cock cock’… This will happen soon,” predicted Raut.

To a query, the Sena (UBT) Chief Spokesperson added that his party’s decision to boycott the inaugural of the new Parliament House was based on principles and to save democracy.

“The President and the Vice-President have been ignored from this event… That is not correct… We have taken a principled stand on this issue,” Raut said.

Sameer Wankhede targeted in The Baddest of Bollywood; Delhi High Court orders removal of objectionable content from controversial series in defamation case

Published

Mumbai: The Mumbai-Delhi High Court has strongly criticized Red Chillies Entertainment Shah Rukh Khan, Gauri Khan and others in the defamation case against NCB Zonal Director IRS officer Sameer Wankhede and said that artistic freedom does not mean mocking a person. After this, the High Court has ordered that the controversial footage related to Sameer Wankhede be removed from the controversial Netflix series The Bads of Bollywood. Sameer Wankhede had filed a petition in the High Court and pleaded that his character has been killed in The Bads of Bollywood and this series has been made to target him. The purpose is to humiliate and mock Sameer Wankhede. After watching some parts of this series, the High Court has ordered the removal of the controversial parts from the film.

Sameer Wankhede’s lawyer had told the court that the character portrayed in the film is a comparison to Sameer Wankhede and that this series has been created with the intention of tarnishing Wankhede’s image. The Bads of Bollywood is malicious, therefore, the above-mentioned controversial scenes and objectionable dialogues should be deleted from the series, on which the court has issued an order to delete the controversial and objectionable content and content. Earlier, while hearing Sameer Wankhede’s petition, the court had sent notices to Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies, Netflix, Meta, and social media platforms and directed them to file a response. To this, Red Chillies had called the film and series a drama and made it clear that it had nothing to do with the facts. However, despite this, the Delhi High Court inquired whether a film drama does not mean that someone’s character is killed and said this, it reprimanded Shah Rukh Khan and the film company. Sameer Wankhede tried to prove through his argument that the character portrayed in the film resembles Sameer Wankhede and that this character has been portrayed in a negative way to target him and in this, an attempt has been made to make fun of Sameer Wankhede through this character, which has humiliated Wankhede, which the court has accepted and issued a directive to delete the objectionable and controversial content. This is a big success for Sameer Wankhede, while Shah Rukh Khan has suffered a huge setback.
