Maidaan, produced by Boney Kapoor, has already been through many hurdles, and now there seems to be another. A legal hurdle, this time.
A camera-related equipment vendor has filed a commercial suit against Boney Kapoor for non-payment of over Rs. 1 crore for the filming of Ajay Devgn and Priyamani starrer Maidaan.Confirming the same to the Mid-Day, Ninad Nayampally of Meherafrin Investments Private Limited stated, "Even after being reassured, we were left in the dark. Having no route left, we took legal recourse and issued a legal notice to Bayview and its directors with the intention that we would get some clarification on our dues. To our surprise, there was no response to our legal notice. Left with no other option, approaching the court of law was the only solution for our recovery."
Replying to these allegations, Boney Kapoor spoke to Mid-Day, clarifying, "I have made 45 films, and nobody has been deprived in my company. There is no way that I will avoid any kind of payment. This is nothing but an arm-twisting tactic. I will clear whatever the bill is, excluding interest on the pending amount. We will reply to whatever is mentioned in the suit in court, but he can't seek an injunction before Rs 63 lakh is paid."
