Krishna Bhatt calls Mahesh Bhatt her "grandfather", find out why

22 Jun 2023

Vikram Bhatt's daughter Krishna Bhatt, who is all set to mark her directorial debut with the upcoming horror flick '1920: Horrors of the Heart', on Thursday shared her experience of working with filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, who is one of the film's writers.Speaking exclusively to ANI, Krishna said, "When he was writing '1920...', it was really special. When I see Papa (Vikram Bhatt) and Mahesh uncle together, it truly feels like a father-son relationship. So in a way, my grandfather has written my film."'1920 - Horrors of the Heart' has been presented by Mahesh Bhatt and Anand Pandit, and is a Vikram Bhatt Production in association with Raj Kishor Khaware."He makes you sit down and write with him. He says if I am writing something you also have to write it with me. You have to also feel it with me. The mentoring by Mahesh uncle is something money can't buy," she added.'1920 - Horrors of the Heart' stars Avika Gor, popularly known for her role in the Tv serial 'Balika Vadhu' and Rahul Dev in lead roles.On how '1920-Horros of the Heart' happened, Avika told ANI, "Vikram-ji called me to say that this is the story and we want to shoot the film with you whenever you are available. So, it was quite surprising to be approached by such a big director for '1920...' Everything happened suddenly and I am glad I got this great opportunity."The film is all set to hit the theatres on June 23.

"It's time when we should believe in reverse mentoring," says Mahesh Bhatt

22 Jun 2023

Mahesh Bhatt on Thursday talked about the upcoming horror film '1920: Horrors of the Heart' which marks the directorial debut of Vikram Bhatt's daughter Krishna Bhatt.Mahesh Bhatt, who is one of the writers of the film, while talking exclusively to ANI said, "The contribution of the writing room has been very important in this edition of '1920' and Krishna did not leave a single moment when she did not oversee our entire process of writing. This is the time when we should believe in reverse mentoring, elders should learn from the younger ones. Krishna is a representative of today's era. So according to their thinking, we served her the idea and when she okayed it then the final script was prepared."'1920 - Horrors of the Heart' has been presented by Mahesh Bhatt and Anand Pandit, and is a Vikram Bhatt Production in association with Raj Kishor Khaware.The film stars Avika Gor in the lead role, who is known for her role in the popular Tv serial 'Balika Vadhu'.Mahesh added, "The emotional standard of the film is quite surprising because it's not often you expect emotions to be present in a horror film. But this film has been made in an emotional and family space. There were many big super hits in Hollywood like 'Exorcist' and others which have left their mark, those films also showcased how a family struggles when an evil tragedy happens and that was the reason for its success. That's what we did in 1920."Apart from Avika, the film also stars Rahul Dev in the lead role and is all set to hit the theatres on June 23.

Filmmaker Vikram Bhatt files legal complaint against former partners

24 May 2023

Vikram Bhatt has filed a lawsuit against K Sera Sera Production Chairman Satish Panchariya and former employee Amar Thakkar for alleged defrauding, forgery, and slander.The complaint, filed by him through his legal counselAdvocate Rizwan Siddiquee, emphasises the "serious nature" of the accused's offence.Advocate Rizwan Siddiquee stated, "It is absolutely true that my client has filed a criminal complaint before the Amboli Police station against (1) Mr. Satish Ramswroop Panchariya (2) Ms. Karishma Bhupendra Rattanshi (3) Mr. Vikrant Parvez Anand and (4) Mr. Amar Thakkar, for plotting and conspiring with each other and for committing serious cognizable and non-bailable offenses of cheating, criminal misappropriation of funds, criminal breach of trust, forgery, and defamation. The criminal complaint made before the Police by my client is serious because it also covers the part where the accused persons used a forged and fabricated document to mislead the Learned Magistrate at Andheri Court and obtain a favourable Order under Section 156(3) CrPC. ""Also, from the complaint, it appears that the accused persons had malafidely and mischievously concealed the fact from the Learned Magistrate that they had replaced the original untenable complaint dated 22.11.2022 with another new complaint dated 17.03.2023 after forging a document to strengthen their baseless complaint. The matter needs to be investigated in detail so that the truth can be brought out.""As my client had to bear the brunt of these unwarranted actions, therefore he will not only be filing a quashing application before the Hon'ble High Court, but also he shall simultaneously be filing various other civil and criminal proceedings including, and not limited to, a private criminal defamation case before the Andheri Metropolitan Magistrate," he added.In a criminal complaint lodged with the Amboli Police Station, Bhatt accuses Satish Ramswroop Panchariya, Karishma Bhupendra Rattanshi, Vikrant Parvez Anand, and Amar Thakkar of plotting and conspiring to commit various criminal acts, including cheating, criminal misappropriation of funds, criminal breach of trust, forgery, and defamation. The complaint sheds light on the accused's misuse of a forged and fabricated document, misleading the Learned Magistrate at Andheri Court and obtaining a favorable order under Section 156(3) of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC).Advocate Rizwan Siddiquee emphasised the importance of conducting a thorough investigation to unearth the truth. According to the complaint, the accused purposefully hid the fact that they had replaced the initial complaint dated 22.11.2022 with a new complaint dated 17.03.2023 after forging a document to support their spurious charges.He announced that the ace filmmaker will file a quashing application before the Hon'ble High Court, as well as many other civil and criminal processes, along with several other civil and criminal proceedings, including a private criminal defamation case before the Andheri Metropolitan Magistrate.
