Shahid Kapoor-starrer ‘Batti Gul Meter Chalu’ had been stalled over financial issues, after a successful first schedule earlier this year. However, the Shree Nayaran Singh directorial will resume shoot today in Mumbai, with Bhushan Kumar being the principal producer of the project. Prernaa Arora and Arjun Kapoor of the production house KriArj Entertainment have exited the project owing to financial crunch. Reports also state that KriArj Entertainment is no longer the producer for Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Anil Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao-starrer ‘Fanne Khan’, with Bhushan Kumar and Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra backing the film now. Having produced successful films like ‘Rustom’ and ‘Toilet: Ek Prem Katha’, KriArj Entertainment now seems to be on a downward fall, having embroiled in controversy for other projects like ‘Kedarnath’ and ‘Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran’.
