The
controversy-ridden
film
Once
Upon
A
Time
In
Mumbai
has
been
finally
cleared
for
release
by
the
Bombay
High
Court.
The
production
houses
Balaji
Telefilms
and
Popcorn
Entertainment
issued
a
press
release
yesterday,
clarifying
that
their
film
is
not
based
on
Haji
Mastan
and
that
they
never
stated
it
is
based
on
his
life.
The
makers
of
Once
Upon
A
Time
In
Mumbai
issued
a
press
release
yesterday
evening
after
the
High
Court
directed
them
to
do
so,
following
which
the
court
disposed
of
the
petition.“The
film
is
purely
work
of
fiction
and
the
characters
in
the
film
are
fictional," the
press
release
stated.
Haji
Mastan"s
adopted
son
Suleiman
Mirza
had
earlier
moved
the
High
Court,
objecting
the
release
of
the
film.
Adding
more
fuel
to
the
fire,
Mastan"s
daughter
Shamshad
Supariwala
sought
to
know
why
its
producers
Ekta
Kapoor
of
Balaji
Telefilms
and
Suniel
Shetty
of
Popcorn
Entertainment
claimed
in
its
publicity
material
that
it
was
based
on
the
life
of
her
father.
