I see what ya did there
There has been much drama from behind the scenes to ensure that Anees Bazmee's Welcome Backmakes it into theatres on Thursday.
Apparently, the office of the censor board was opened at 10 pm on Monday night to see the final print and issue the censor certificate.
Explaining the reason for the late-night high drama in the censor office, Pahlaj Nihalani the chairperson of the censor board says, "We had asked for a number of cuts when the film was shown to the Examining Committee on the August 26. After that we waited for the producers to come back to us with the cuts. They didn't return with the cuts until Monday August 31. I had to request my censor board members to assemble all of a sudden. We opened our offices at 10 pm to view the cuts and issue the certificate. Otherwise the release would have been delayed."
Apparently, the post-production and sound mixing of Welcome Back was inordinately delayed because of the film's director's observance of tools-down to protest against non-payment of his dues.
Says a source, "From his Rs. 17-crore fee, Anees Bazmee had been paid only Rs. 11 crores by producer Firoz Nadiadwala. Anees refused to work on the mixing until he was paid his balance. He was coaxed into doing so by his producers. And the film was taken with the required cuts to the censor board."
The frantic behind-the-scenes happenings could well be the plot for the next Anees Bazmee comedy.
Welcome Back would have apparently been in a serious financial crisis stalling the release on September 4, if those monetarily affected did not decide to be magnanimous.
Apparently, the producer Firoz Nadiadwala owes his director Anees Bazmee and leading man Anil Kapoor substantial amounts of remuneration for their work on Welcome Back.
The two of them had decided to seek the permission of the film federations to stall the film's release until their dues were cleared.
Says an informed source, "Firoz owes Anees Rs. 4 crores and Anil Kapoor Rs. 4-5 crores. Both demanded their dues be cleared before the film's release. However better sense prevailed with time. Anees and Anil decided to not obstruct the film's release for their dues. And now the film would be released on time."
Apparently, Anees and Anil have not been paid their dues yet. But have been assured that the needful would be done.
