| Bollywood backs Ashutosh Gowarikar | |
 After the public spat between the show's host Sajid Khan and best director award winner Ashutosh Gowarikar at the recent Star Screen Awards, it seems the industry has gone against Sajid and are all supporting Ashu.Even Sajid's sister Farah Khan, who intervened to sort out the matters on the stage, is not able to clear the air. Subhash Ghai has gone a step ahead and is sending a text message to everyone in his phone book, The SMS reads: "All respected filmmakers and artistes fully support Ashutosh Gowarikar's stand to speak on Screen awards against the cheap and humiliating jokes on industry people in public, where they are supposed to honour the contestants and the winners... it was height of making commercial awards function as a cheap entertainment show at the cost of celebrities, artistes and individuals. Industry shall stop going to attend such functions in future if such arrogance continues." To update those not in know, the verbal fight between Sajid and Ashutosh took place during the awards function in Mumbai on January 14. As a co-host of the Star Screen Awards, along with his sister Farah, Sajid had been cracking jokes at the expense of many celebrities. When Ashutosh Gowarikar came on stage to accept his award, he voiced his displeasure at Sajid's humour and also the fact that he was not allowing many award winners to give an acceptance speech. He also said that the people would rather listen to the artistes than Sajid's jokes. When Sajid told him that the jokes were part of the script, Ashu asked him to shut up and walked off. Not one to take such a thing lying low, Sajid put in the last word by saying, "Nobody's father can ask me to shut up". https://www.filmicafe.com/news_detail.php?news_id=9129 |
