Of late, Bollywood has become quite secretive. Filmmakers have been taking a lot of precautions to keep details about their projects under wraps, the general practice being a ban on use of cellphones on the set. Phones are confiscated at the beginning of day's shoot and returned only at the end of filming to ensure that pictures and spoilers do not make it to social media platforms. But now more such diktats are being issued and apply not only to the production unit, but also the lead stars.
Quite recently, Ashutosh Gowariker instructed the cast and crew of his historical film, Mohenjo Daro, to avoid having their near and dear ones on the set besides prohibiting the use of phones on the set. It said that though the director did not debar lead actor Hrithik Roshan's family from visiting him on the set, the actor decided to abide by the rules on his own.

Sanjay Gupta's Jazbaa, which is being billed as Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's comeback vehicle, went on floors in January this year. A couple of weeks into the shoot, he was forced to ban the use of cell phones on the set after some pictures surfaced on social media revealing the actress' look from the film. What's more, he also fired his security agency following the incident.
