One of Bollywood's leading production houses, Ashtavinayak, known for films like the Golmaal series, Jab We Met, Dabangg, Rockstar and others seems to have landed in a spot of trouble. Apparently, a couple of months ago,State Bank of India took symbolic possession of all the properties of the production house, which had taken a loan of Rs. 29 crores from them, but had defaulted on payments.
