‘Tadka’: Ali Fazal calls out producers of the film for non-payment of dues

Handsome hunk Ali Fazal is currently busy shooting in Benaras for the second season of his hit show ‘Mirzapur’. He will soon kick-start the promotions of his upcoming film ‘Prasthanam’ which stars Sanjay Dutt in the lead. Recently, the actor was up for a rude shock when he found a song of his film ‘Tadka’ doing the rounds on fan clubs on social media.

Months after the Taapsee Pannu and Ali Fazal starrer ‘Tadka’, which has been helmed by Prakash Raj ran into legal trouble, Zee Music (the music wing of Zee Studios) was seen uploading a song from the film on their official YouTube channel. The film, which is a remake of the Malayalam film-‘Salt N’ Pepper’, has run into legal trouble over the IP rights of the venture. The film also stars Nana Patekar, Shriya Saran in pivotal roles. The makers of ‘Tadka’ have still not cleared the dues of the actors and crew involved in their film.

Ali was quick to turn to Twitter to call out the producers for their ethical breach. Check out his post below.

There’s a court case on the producers of this film as far as i remember. Cheques had bounced. Actors and crew still havent gotten paid . Surprised to see a promotional song coming out from the film. https://t.co/wNhu2GPNoY

A source informs, “Ali was utterly displeased with the rampant flouting of court rules which evidently had kept the film on hold. Additionally, he saw the incident as a breach of ethical conduct on part of the producers who are yet to clear payments for cast and crew but are willing to flaunt their film on social media. Ali put his version out there to make his stand on the matter clear and show his solidarity with the aggrieved cast and crew.”

We wonder what the makers of ‘Tadka’ have to say in their defence now?
