Members of the Raj Thackeray-led MNS' film wing today disrupted shooting of the film Bbuddah, being produced by Amitabh Bachchan's AB Corp, citing violations of norms on inclusion of foreign artists.
"We are opposing the inclusion of around 40 foreign artists in the shoot without proper permissions and documents," MNS film wing chief Amey Khopkar told PTI, after the protest in Dadar area.
"The foreign artists are working for this film without work permits, proper visa and relevant documents," Khopkar said.
The concerned police station was not informed about their participation in the shoot, he said.
"MNS film wing will take up the issue and strongly oppose anyone violating the law," Khopkar said.
Meanwhile, the police said that they were verifying documents of foreign artists following complaints by MNS that they did not have requisite work permits.
"The verification is on. So far no foreign artist has been brought to police station," said SR Unavane, a senior police inspector at Shivaji Park police station.
