Soon after Khan's Instagram post went viral, people started slamming her on the social media platforms. Now, a source has given us a different story altogether. Read to know more.
Tanushree Dutta and Nana Patekar's controversy has jolted the whole nation. Netizens are calling this India's #MeToo movement as many celebs are in the favour of Tanushree and have called out against Nana Patekar. Amidst Tanushree Dutta controversy, Farah Khan posted a picture with Nana as they were to shoot for Housefull 4 Jaisalmer. Soon after Khan's Instagram post went viral, people started slamming her on the social media platforms.
"Taking the not so private charter flight to jaisalmer.@kritisanon A very excited @hegdepooja @rimpleandharpreet n 4 1 st time on insta Nana Patekar( where is @chunkypanday ) @aasifahmedofficial @adrianjacobsofficial n 1 innocent bystander,” she captioned the photo. Well, Farah was stuck in the storm of the whole controversy. And now, we have got you the real story behind the picture she posted and according to our source, the team photo was clicked way before the controversy happened.
Check out the picture here:
A source told us, "This team picture of Housefull was posted when Farah Khan and the team reached Rajasthan, much before the controversy broke out in a big way. Farah posted the picture as it was a new schedule in Jaisalmer. Prior to this too the Housefull team have posted pictures across social media platforms. It's unfair to single Farah out and target her when there are other actresses and industry technicians in the picture."
The source also added, "Farah Khan has always empowered women being a female director and choreographer herself. She has always been a shining example of championing the cause and was the first woman to become a commercially successful filmmaker. The picture has been blown out of proportion because it didn't come from an insensitive place and was merely a regular post. Instead of making this about Farah and diverting the attention from this important issue, people should focus on getting to the bottom of what happened." Well, that's what our source has conveyed to us but we are not clear about the fact if Nana Patekar has shot for his portions yet or not.
