Salman Khan's Tiger Zinda Hai lands in trouble with MNS.

By far one of the biggest releases this year
is the soon to release Salman Khan Katrina
Kaif starrer Tiger Zinda Hai. While the
makers of the film, which is a sequel to the
previously released film Ek Tha Tiger, are
going all out to ensure the film's success,
the local political group Maharashtra
Navnirman Sena (MNS) have taken an
objection to the film. In fact, Raj Thackeray's
MNS have taken an objection to the release
pattern of Tiger Zinda Hai stating that they
would oppose the film if Bollywood movies
take screen space at the expense of Marathi
films.
As per reports, MNS chief Raj Thackeray has
written a letter to the owners of cinema
halls, warning them that if the Marathi film
Deva Ek Atrangee, which incidentally hits
screens alongside the Salman Khan starrer
is not given a prime time slot, he would not
let them run Tiger Zinda Hai either. Further
talking about the issue, Thackeray added
that regional films should not bear the loss
due to big-budget releases taking up bulk
shows, and that regional films (read Marathi
films) should also be given due prominence
and prime time slots in theatres.
While the debate still continues to rage on,
the film in question, Deva Ek Atrangee is
directed by Murali Nallappa and stars
Ankush Chaudhari in the lead. The film also
stars Tejaswini Pandit, Spruha Joshi and
Paddy Kamble. On the other hand, Tiger
Zinda Hai that stars Salman Khan and
Katrina Kaif is directed by Ali Abbas Zafar.
