T-Series has reacted strongly to online speculation claiming that Akshay Kumar’s upcoming film Bhooth Bangla has been developed using a storyline connected to Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. Putting an end to the rumours, the production house has clarified that the two projects have no link whatsoever.The statement comes after reports suggested that the script of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 was allegedly reworked and used for Bhooth Bangla. However, T-Series has firmly denied any such development. Shiv Chanana, co-producer at T-Series, addressed the chatter and said the claims are baseless. “We have also come across some articles, but the fact is we have never received any script from Mr Priyadarshan or his team for making a Bhool Bhulaiyaa franchise,” he said.Chanana also emphasised that the franchise is entirely controlled and developed by the studio itself. “It is our franchise. If anything has to be developed, it will be developed by us and under our supervision, which is exactly how Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 were made. I don’t understand where these stories are coming from—this was never the case,” he added.Reports further quoted industry insiders claiming that T-Series considers the Bhool Bhulaiyaa brand a major asset, and any attempt to draw indirect association with it could invite legal consequences. With the clarification now out, the studio has urged audiences to rely only on official updates rather than unverified speculation surrounding the filmsAlso Read: Inside Bollywood’s Old-School brotherhood: Why Akshay Kumar spoke to Salman Khan before announcing Bhooth Bangla for April 10

Vikram Bhatt accused of non-payment by 1920: Horrors of the heart casting director and crew

Filmmaker Vikram Bhatt, who is currently in judicial custody along with his wife Shwetambari Bhatt in connection with a Rs 30 crore cheating and criminal breach of trust case, is facing fresh allegations related to non-payment of dues from his 2023 film 1920: Horrors of the Heart.Parag Chadha, the casting director of the film, has publicly accused Bhatt of not clearing his professional fees. Following Chadha’s statement, several actors and crew members associated with the film have also come forward with similar claims of unpaid dues.Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter India, Parag said that 100 per cent of his fees remain unpaid despite repeated follow-ups over the years. “100% of my fees is pending,” he said, adding that he had refrained from speaking out earlier due to concerns about his livelihood and future work prospects.Parag stated that the makers had acknowledged the pending payment but failed to settle it. “I have email confirmations acknowledging my dues. Despite that, no payment was made,” he said. He added that he no longer expects the money to be recovered. “I’ve written this money off as bad debt. Speaking out is not about recovering it, it’s about awareness.”After Parag’s allegations became public, other members of the cast and crew of 1920: Horrors of the Heart also alleged that they had not received payments owed to them. Some claimed that vendors and debutant actors associated with the project were similarly affected, despite the film’s reported box office earnings of Rs 17–18 crore.Neither Vikram Bhatt nor his representatives have issued a public response to the allegations at the time of writing.The development adds to the legal troubles faced by the filmmaker, who remains in custody as investigations in the fraud case continue.Also Read: Rajasthan High Court REJECTS bail plea of Vikram Bhatt and wife in Rs 30 crores fraud case
