Mumbai:
Filmmaker Sanjay Gupta, who has won a case in the Bombay High Court involving the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE), said that his crusade against "bully" associations, which believe in high-handedness, will continue.
He tweeted:
FWICE reportedly issued a non-cooperation directive following the decision of the Joint Dispute Settlement Committee (JDSC) of FWICE and IFTDA (Indian Film and Television Directors Association) in the complaint filed by producer Vinod Bachchan against the filmmaker. Mr Gupta moved the Bombay High Court in the case.
On Twitter, Jazbaa's PR team posted:
The Kaante director then wrote extensively against the workers' association, which he feels is not keeping the interest of "daily wage earners" in mind while coming up with any decision.
In a series of tweets, he said:
Meanwhile, Jazbaa is making headlines as the action film marks the comeback of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and has a talented cast with names like Shabana Azmi, Irrfan Khan, Jackie Shroff, Atul Kulkarni, Abhimanyu Singh, Chandan Roy Sanyal and Siddhant Kapoor.
The film will hit the screens on October 9.
He tweeted:
My fight isn't against the individual. He is inconsequential. I am fighting the bully associations that believe they are above the law.

When a film shoot is cancelled its daily wage earners are worst hit. SHOCKINGLY the Federation supposed to look after them indulges in this.

These heads of Federations & Councils haven't made a film in years. So they remove their frustration by trying to stop the ones that do.

Will soon post IMDB pages of the geniuses that try & screw hard working Producer/Directors just because they themselves are hardly working.
