The
Makers
Are
In
A
Rude
Shock
A
source
revealed,
"Months
after
shooting
for
Abhishek
Kapoor's
Kedarnath
came
to
a
halt,
the
film
was
ready
to
start
its
second
schedule
-
till
the
makers
got
a
rude
shock!
Ronnie
Screwvala
has
facilitated
smooth
sailing
for
the
troubled
project
by
taking
over
the
reins
and
compensating
former
producers
Prernaa
Arora,
Bhushan
Kumar
and
Ekta
Kapoor.
Ronnie
has
paid
Prernaa
and
Bhushan
(since
it
is
one
contract,
all
money
was
invested
by
Bhushan)
Rs
14
crores
and
Ekta
Rs
8
crores.
Prerna
Arora
Did
This
Shocking
Thing
Five
days
after
the
announcement
of
Ronnie's
take
over
happened,
RSVP
and
Guy
in
the
Sky
received
copy
of
legal
papers
(agreement
between
Prernaa
and
Vashu)
from
Pooja
Films
(Vashu
Bhagnani).
Papers
showed
that
Prernaa
Arora
had
sold
Indian
Theatrical
Rights
of
her
entire
slate
including
Kedarnath
(which
didn't
belong
to
her)
to
Vashu
Bhagnani."
A
Huge
Blow
To
Team
Kedarnath
That
wasn't
all.
The
source
further adds,
"While
the
makers
were
trying
to
come
to
terms
with
this
new
legal
development,
within
days
they
have
been
approached
by
two
more
companies,
Gothic
Entertainment,
and
Kolkata-based
Padma
Ispat
Private
Limited,
saying
they
have
been
sold
Indian
theatrical
rights
of
Kedarnath
by
Prernaa
again.
Neither
of
the
other
parties
who
had
invested
money
in
the
film,
i.e.
Ekta,
Bhushan,
Abhishek
and
Ronnie
were
aware
of
these
agreements.
In
fact
Bhushan
was
in
touch
with
Ronnie
and
Abhishek
for
music
rights.
This
has
come
as
a
huge
blow
to
the
team
of
the
film."
A
Furious
Abhishek
Kapoor
Lodges
Complaint
Against
Prerna
Arora
This
knowledge
was
not
with
Ronnie
or
Gattu?
Neither
did
Ronnie
or
Gattu
know
about
it.
Yesterday
morning,
Ispat
sent
the
papers
saying
that
the
Indian
theatrical
rights
of
Kedarnath,
with
legal
paperwork,
are
with
them.
She
has
sold
it
to
three
places
and
then
signed
an
agreement
with
Bhushan,
Ronnie
and
Gattu
saying
all
rights
belong
to
them.
Ronnie
is
waiting
for
more
people
to
reach
out
to
him.
He
won't
be
surprised
if
the
rights
have
been
sold
to
many
others.
A
furious
Gattu
has
filed
an
NC
at
Khar
Police
Station
as
a
precaution."
The
Filmmaker
Lashes
Out
Abhishek
Kapoor
says,
"It's
shocking
to
know
that
there
are
people
in
the
business
who
think
its
OK
to
sell
assets
that
do
not
belong
to
them
or
have
not
been
authorised
to
sell.
Beyond
that, I
am
amazed
to
learn
that
there
are
people
who
give
money
to
the
likes
of
these
without
doing
any
kind
of
due
diligence
or
checking
paper
work."
