With uncertainty looming large over the film's fate and unconfirmed reports stating that Heroine could either be shelved completely or begin with another leading lady, trade is pegging the overall loss of 4-5 crores on a conservative scale.
"It could even be more. There was so much spent on the film's pre-production. Who is going to account for the money spent on the shooting so far", questions a trade source.
While it is being said that Ash is willing to continue with the film's shoot with director Madhur Bhandarkar on a fast track mode so that no one's interests are harmed, it is obvious that the makers aren't willing to buy any justification. More so because apparently, neither the producers (UTV) nor the director were informed in advance about Ash going the family way.
"Aisa thodi hi hota hai", is the question asked, "There was an overseas shoot planned. Then there are a couple of dances that Ash was supposed to do. For the dramatic portions of the film, Madhur could still go ahead and take close-up shots to hide her pregnancy. But how about the part where she has to look glamorous? Her entire profile can anyways not be shown on camera, now that she is all set to put on weight."
A stickler for getting it all just right, especially when it comes to a film of his with a real and hard hitting setting, Madhur can't be expected to allow Ash faking anything for camera. No wonder, with so much happening around his much cherished subject which is just failing to take off, Madhur has gone into a shell.
Confirms an industry source, "He has cut himself from the outside world and gone into hibernation. Perhaps once he comes out of the shock, he would decide further course of action."
For everyone's sake, we hope that happens rather soon.
