The Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) has threatened to disrupt the release of the Shah Rukh Khan-Deepika Padukone starrer Chennai Express, reports Hindustan Times.
The party’s film unit is upset over reports that the Rohit Shetty-directed movie has demanded prime slots in single cinemas across the state at the expense of some Marathi movies that are being screened.‘If the producers of Chennai Express attempt to dislodge any of the ongoing or forthcoming Marathi movies, we shall not tolerate it and deal with it in MNS style,’ warned Maharashtra Navnirman Chitrapat Karmachari Sena (film wing) chief Amey Khopkar.
He specifically referred to the hit Marathi movie Duniyadari, running to full houses since July 19 in single screen cinemas in non-metro cities and small towns.
