Akshay Kumar’s next film ‘Baby’ directed by Neeraj Pandey landed in trouble in Nepal. As per reports the unit failed to pay Rs 1.5 million to a Nepali film management company. Ice-fall Adventure Pvt Ltd claimed that expenses on the shoot were around Rs.9.5 million and they had received only Rs.7 million.
Abhi Narayan Kafle, deputy superintendent of Nepal Police at Gaushal Beat said, “We have not detained anyone. We have called both the parties to reach an understanding. The Nepali side seized the shooting material claiming that the Indian side had failed to pay some due amount. So we brought the parties to police station. We are trying to find a common ground."
Akshay already left the city on May 7, 2014 after completing the shooting in Kathmandu. The unit was moving out of Nepal without paying the dues to Ice-fall Adventure Pvt Ltd. The shooting materials were seized by Ram Krishna Pokhrel, Chairman of Ice-fall Adventure after the unit reached Tribhuvan International Airport to fly to Turkey via India. The Indian film side took Nepal police’s help.
The unit ran into more financial loss when they missed the 7 AM flight on May 8, 2014 at Tribhuvan International Airport. They told the police that they made an arrangement where they were leaving one of their team members in the city to clear the dues, but Ice-fall rejected their proposal. The two parties didn't reach any understanding till evening.
