Guru Dutt's family threatens legal action against his biopic makers

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 20 Juni 2013 | 21.44

The other day, we reported how late Guru Dutt's family members had raised serious objection to the making of a biopic based on his life and times by National Award-winning filmmaker, Bhavna Talwar, and her husband and producer of 'Mausam' and 'Rann', Sheetal Talwar.

Guru Dutt's son Arun, and his niece and acclaimed filmmaker, Kalpana Lajmi, had come out in strong protest about the Talwars not informing them or taking due permission from them for the film.

This not with standing, Sheetal had justified the couple's going ahead with the script saying: "There is a clear law that a celebrity's life can be put on celluloid from whatever information is up on the public domain. We will adhere to that. We will definitely go to Guru Dutt's family members, but only once the script is ready."

An angry Arun had shot back, "Whatever is in the public domain about my father is not entirely correct. It will be a big mistake on Bhavna's part to blindly believe that material." Lajmi too had seconded Arun saying, "While I think Bhavna is a fine filmmaker, she will have to be extra careful in doing her research. We, the family members of Dutt, are still alive. It is always a sensitive issue when you are making a biopic on a person who is not around anymore to defend himself. Also, I am a bit apprehensive about Bhavna trusting material available in the public domain."

The latest is Arun and Lajmi have decided they will take legal action against Bhavna and Sheetal in the event they take the biopic on floors without showing them the complete script. When contacted, Lajmi confirmed the news. To this, Sheetal simply said, "India is a free country. I believe in the courts. I love the courts. If we get a court order saying that we have to show them (Arun and Lajmi) the script, we will."
