`Veer` producers fined Rs 20 lakh by Rajasthan High Court!

Spicezee Bureau Mumbai, Feb 21: The Rajasthan High court has allowed the shooting of movie ‘Veer’ to continue, but the permission comes with a ‘pocket-heavy’ twist. The producers have been fined by the court for damaging a protected heritage site when the wall of the historical Amber Fort fell.

The producers have to shell out Rs 20 lakh as damages. Besides, the crew has just been given four days in the Amber Fort premises - two to shoot and two to wind up. Then they have to leave. Vijay Galani, the producer of Veer has said, "The crew will have to wind up the shooting within four days and pay Rupees 20 lakh as compensation to the government. This amount will be utilised to restore the fort and to give to those injured in the wall collapse. I'm happy that the court has made this order." But this might prove to be a temporary relief for the producers. The Ministry of Culture at the Centre has taken a serious note of the damage caused to the Fort's wall and an enquiry has been ordered.
