Fixer Cast & Crew Attacked By Drunken Men; Mahie Gill & Others Reveal How Cops Refuse To Help!
The cast and crew of Ekta Kapoor's web series Fixer were shooting in a factory when a few drunken men attacked them. The crew was badly injured and the cops refused to help.
Ekta
Kapoor's
Fixer
cast
and
crew
had
to
face
trouble
while
they
were
shooting
at
a
factor
in
Mira
road.
The
cast
and
crew
members
were
attacked
by
four
drunken
goons.
In
a
video
that
has
gone
viral
on
social
media,
the
team
members
claimed
that
they
were
shooting
near
Ghodbunder
Road,
Mira
Road.
Producer
Sakett
Saawhney
said,
"We
were
shooting
in
a
factory
today
with
valid
permission
and
due
money
paid
to
the
location
manager.
We
were
shooting
since
7
AM
and
around
4.30
PM,
some
four
people
barged
in,
drunk,
with
sticks
and
rods
in
their
hands."
The
producer
further
added,
"They
attacked
our
artistes,
technicians
and
crew.
They
said
we
cannot
shoot
there
without
their
permission.
There
was
no
scope
for
dialogue,
discussion.
They
manhandled
women,
attacked
our
director
of
photography,
our
director
has
dislocated
his
shoulder."
Mahie
then
reveals
that
they
started
beating
her
and
she
ran
towards
her
car.
She
saw
the
men
beating
people
like
animals.
She
revealed
that
they
are
not
going
to
the
police
and
sharing
with
us
as
police
themselves
told
the
goons
to
hit
them!
The
producer
revealed
that
although
they
narrated
the
incident
to
the
police,
but
they
shut
the
compound
doors
and
didn't
let
the
crew
members
to
take
their
things
and
demanded
money.
The
team
members
say
that
it
is
their
conscious
decision
to
not
to
go
to
police
as
they
know
that
the
cops
won't
co-operate.
He
revealed,
"Police
said
come
to
court
and
then
take
your
stuff.
This
is
total
harassment.
We
have
consciously
taken
a
call
to
not
file
a
police
complaint
as
you
will
call
the
other
party,
give
them
an
NC
(non-cognisable
offence)
and
they
will
be
out
on
bail."
Ekta
Kapoor,
Shabbir
Ahluwalia
(who
is
also
a
part
of
Fixer)
and
Tigmanshu
Dhulia
shared
the
video
on
their
social
media
accounts.
Tigmanshu
expressed
his
shock
at
the
incident
and
told
IANS,
"This
kind
of
act
in
Mumbai
where
we
make
films
is
unheard
of.
Shooting
in
Mumbai
is
troublesome,
that
is
why
I
always
move
out
of
this
city
for
my
projects."
