Producers Guild, celebrities condemn attack on filmmaker Prakash Jha and crew of ‘Ashram 3’
A day after the members of the Bajrang Dal went on the rampage on the set of ‘Ashram 3’ in Bhopal, smearing ink on Prakash Jha and attacking the crew, the Madhya Pradesh Government said it will issue fresh guidelines on shooting movies in the State. Henceforth, film production houses will have to first get the script of the film approved by the officials.
“In the context of the shooting of web series ‘Aashram 3’, the State Government will issue fresh guidelines. Now prior to film shooting, the script is to be approved by the district Collector. Only then can they apply to get a permit to start filming,” Madhya Pradesh Minister for Home, Jail and Parliamentary Affairs and Law Department tweeted in Hindi.
On Sunday evening, Mr. Jha and members of his film unit were allegedly beaten up by the members of the Bajrang Dal on Bhopal’s old jail premises, a very high security area. The right-wing group said the web series starring Bobby Deol was an assault on Hinduism and they will not allow its filming till the title is changed.
