Cheques issued by Ashtavinayak bounce again

1 Aug 2012

Ajay Devgn- Abhishek Bachchan starrer Bol Bachchan may have crossed the coveted Rs. 100 crore mark thereby being declared a super-hit but it's still not all hunky dory for its producer Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Pvt. Ltd.

If you recollect, prior to release, Asthtavinayak was in a financial mess with various parties filing legal suits against them over pending payments. Eros International had even filed a winding up petition against Ashtavinayak in the Bombay High Court.

Now Ashtavinayak had issued a cheque to Film Studios Setting & Allied Mazdoor Union amounting to Rs. 24,55,654 on June 30 which bounced. The cheque was towards payment to the various crew members who constructed the sets of Bol Bachchan. Ashtavinayak once again issued another fresh cheque of the same amount on July 15 which also bounced.

Prem Thakur, Vice- Chairman of the Allied Mazdoor Union, is fed up of waiting endless for his pending dues and time and again following up with Ashtavinayak.
