MNS threatens protest against Salman Khan’s Tiger Zinda Hai

Salman Khan‘s upcoming film Tiger Zinda Hai has faced opposition from the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) and the Shiv Sena. The political parties have raised their voice against Bollywood dadagiri.

The issue raised by them is that regional films shouldn’t bear the loss over big-budget star releases. Apparently, Yash Raj Films has booked five shows in all the multiplexes and single screens in Mumbai. Due to this Marathi film, Deva is left with no-shows.

MNS film division head Amey Khopkar said that he has written to the film production and distribution company regarding this issue.

“I have sent a letter to Yash Raj Films. If they’re ready to give screen space to Marathi Films, ‘Deva’ in this case, then there is no need for us opposing it. However, if they don’t, we won’t allow it to shoot hereafter in Maharashtra,”

Yesterday MNS Chitrapat Sena leader Shalini Thackeray said “Marathi films must be given prime time shows. ‘Deva’ wasn’t given screen space against ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’. If Hindi film industry takes screen space at expense of Marathi films, we’ll oppose it. We haven’t threatened anyone, we want screen space for Deva,”

Well, we wonder what Salman Khan has to say about the same.
