Vashu Bhagnani’s Pooja Entertainment crew reveals speaking to Jackky Bhagnani over unpaid dues

Vashu Bhagnani and Jackky Bhagnani’s Pooja Entertainment has been making headlines but not for good reasons. Several crew members working for the company came forward alleging non-payment of dues. In the latest development, more crew members have come forward making similar allegations.

Crew member narrate ordeal

In an interview with Indian Express, a crew member revealed that despite submitting multiple invoices, he received only partial payment. He said that he made repeated attempts to contact the production house but did not get a satisfactory response.

The crew member shared that some of them directly spoke to Jackky Bhagnani, who assured them that the payments would be made. "There were a couple of times when people directly spoke to Jackky, who said he will ensure (the payments are done). He is good with people, so we trusted him," he said.

'Akshay Kumar and others should speak up'

The crew member also urged Akshay Kumar to speak up in the matter. He said, “All the stars were paid right? Akshay Kumar and all was given full, so why not us? I hope they speak for our causes. They get their payments but won’t talk for us workers who make their movies happen. A spot boy, who gets some Rs 1,000 a day, still hasn’t been paid. How is that fair?”

Actor shares experience with Pooja Entertainment

Another actor Faraz Khan who worked in Pooja Entertainment’s ‘Ganapath’ shared his ordeal. He revealed that he has not been paid despite several promises. Khan said, “It was a nightmare. I am owed Rs 3,00,000. If you go to their office and show your anger about the non-payment, they have some 15-20 people to keep you out. They don’t talk to you. I haven’t experienced such disrespect in my life.”
