The film is helmed by Rohit Dhawan. However, months after its release, the makers have been accused of not clearing vendors’ dues. Yes, you heard that right!
For the unversed, Shehzada was Kartik’s debut production film which has been making headlines for its budget crisis since the beginning. Now in a shocking turn of events, the makers are accused of not clearing dues of Rs 30 lakh to the vendors. Scroll down for details.
The latest report in Times Of India states Shehzada makers have delayed the payment of approx Rs 30 Lakh for 4 months which is supposed to be clear within 60 to 90 days after the film’s premiere, as per industry standards. The report further claims that the direction team is also disappointed with the non-payment of dues as they believe “such practices erode trust and discourage future collaborations with the producers. The member insisted that the situation calls for a realization among producers that timely remuneration is essential to maintain healthy working relationships.”
