Women gangsters from UP want to meet Madhuri Dixit

Barely had news of actress Madhuri Dixit-Nene signing films broken out, there was  talk of  the actress apparently being in a dilemma about certain films.

One of them being Ishqiya’s sequel, Dedh Ishqiya, where she’s required to play not just a bold character, but also mouth some expletives. If that’s not enough, her other film Gulab Gang to be directed by Anubhav Sinha, too may run into rough waters, say sources.

Says an insider, “A group of women gangsters operate in Uttar Pradesh, the kind that Madhuri will be playing in Gulab Gang. The members of this women gang now wish to know the entire plot of the film. The leader of the gang apparently wants Madhuri to first visit the place they come from, understand their lives and their way of living before starting the shoot as Madhuri plays one of them. And if that is not done, they have threatened to disrupt the shoot; in fact stall it, if need be, as they feel that they will not be portrayed in the right light.”

However, when contacted, filmmaker Anubhav Sinha said he was unaware of these developments. “I don’t understand how people pass such judgements without really knowing what the film is all about?” says the filmmaker.

“I do not know much about this girl gang,  except that they hail from UP. But I plan to find out more about them now. I also plan to find out what exactly is the issue they have with my film. The thing is that a lot of presumptions are being made about the film, and it’s leading to these situations,” he adds.
