This
is
something
that
usually
happens
only
in
a
Bollywood
film.
But,
this
time
round,
it's
happening
in
real
life
and
how.
Ironically,
the
people
involved
in
this
are
the
B-town
residents.
We
are
talking
about
the
family
of
legendary
late
Kamaal
Amrohi,
which
is
in
news
due
to
their
property
dispute
that's
worth
over
a
staggering
Rs.600
crore!
Shandar,
one
of
Kamaal
Amrohi's
three
children,
has
now
filed
a
case
against
his
sister
Rukhsar
and
brother
Wasim
stating
that
they
have
falsely
pledged
his
shares
in
'Mahal
Pictures
Pvt
Ltd'
(that
owns
the
famous
Kamaal
Amrohi
studio),
to
a
company
in
Pune.
As
he
was
struggling
his
way
through
the
cops
to
file
a
complaint,
entered
preity
zinta,
his
'adopted'
daughter
(who,
of
late
has
been
tweeting
about
how
difficult
it
is
to
file
an
FIR
these
days),
who
offered
to
shoulder
his
cause
ahead.
For
starters,
Shandar
always
took
preity
zinta
as
his
daughter
ever
since
he
saw
her
films.
No
wonder
then,
he
had
announced
that
he
would
pass
on
all
his
property
to
Preity.
Shandar,
on
his
part,
opined
that
he
is
battling
not
for
money
but
for
justice
and
that
Preity
is
helping
him
fight
it,
despite
strong
opposition
from
the
other
family
members.
Even
as
we
publish
this
news,
we
just
got
the
update
that
the
High
Court
has
adjourned
further
hearing
on
Shandar's
plea
till
March
11.
Watch
this
space
for
further
updates.
