ReplyDeleteDialogue of the week. A gem from Knock Out: Jo bhi karna apne dil se karna kyunki dil waise left main hota hai lekin hamesha right hota hai.
^^Hahaha, wtf
ReplyDeletethis film is banned
ReplyDelete^^The release has been allowed now. That's why reviews are coming out.
ReplyDeleteoh i thought it was banned . they reached a settlement ?
ReplyDeleteStay Order on Knock Out lifted
ReplyDeleteProducer had to deposit 1.5 crores to the High Court
A movie will never be totally banned on this basis especially if the Plaintiff Studio(Fox) has to work in the same market.
ReplyDeleteIn the end is inter-community(Film Trade) thing and in business one cant have hard lines.
But yes they have made sure it doesnt happen in future with them atleast and got some money out of it also.
