Film maker Sanjay Gupta He has broken the silence in front of the surrounding debate Ranveer SinghHis exit from ‘Don 3’ and a ban from the Federation of West Indian Film Workers (FWICE) followed. Without naming anyone directly, Gupta made his position clear with a pointed question to the federation: “What’s the point?”
FWICE responded to Sanjay Gupta, ”Mumbai Saga ‘
The controversy took a major turn when Ashok Dubey, the principal secretary of FWICE, fired at Sanjay Gupta, bringing up a past incident involving the filmmaker himself. Dubey highlighted the Mumbai Saga controversy where film bodies were said to have stepped in to resolve the crisis after Jackie Shroff walked out of the project. Speaking to Hindustan Times, Dubey said, “I want to ask Sanjay Gupta ji a few years back when he was shooting his film Mumbai Saga and Jackie Shroff ne aane se mana kar diya, hi IFTDA federation you don’t have karvaya tha to solve the problem. Where was that objection then?”.
FWICE clarifies that it is an NCD, not Ranveer Singh’s ban
Dubey also went on to clarify the nature of the action against Ranveer, clarifying that it was not an outright ban. The federation, he explained, only issued a Non-Cooperation Declaration (NCD), which allows its members not to work with the actor. “Agar ye trend chalta raha to kaafi filmmaker aur producers nuksaan mein jaayenge. Humne kisi ko ban nahi kiya, humne to non-cooperation bola hai, federation ke members ka decided hai ye film body ka internal decision hai,” he said.
