Mumbai, May 24: It has been alleged that Sana decided to teach the girl a lesson, who had rejected her cousin Naved's marriage proposal.

Troubles for Salman Khan's latest flick Mental seem to be far from over with the film's leading lady Sana Khan being on the run after being booked under kidnapping charges.

According to media reports, the actress is allegedly involved in the abduction of a 15-year-old girl.

It has been alleged that Sana decided to teach the girl a lesson, who had rejected her cousin Naved's marriage proposal.

The girl's mother had filed a complaint against Sana on April 30 at the Turbhe police station of Navi Mumbai.

The girl's family alleged that on April 30, Sana, along with her cousin Naved and his friends Kshitij, Vismit and another person went to Sanpada and tried to abduct the girl by forcing her to sit in their car.

But the girl managed to escape and her mother lodged a complaint at Turbhe police station. While Naved and his three friends were arrested, Sana gave police the slip.

Sana's cousin Naved fell in love with the minor girl through Facebook last year and proposed marriage, which she refused.

A police team even went to Sana's Oshiwara residence, but she wasn't there.

Sana's disappearance is affecting the shooting schedule of Salman Khan's film Mental.

Meanwhile, Sana's spokesman Ismail Sheikh has denied that Sana is on the run. However, he confirmed the fact that a complaint has been lodged against her.

Best known for her appearance in the Amul Macho ad, Sana was Salman Khan's favourite contestant during the reality show Bigg Boss's 6th edition.

Recently, south-based artistes had forced a lockdown on the sets of the film alleging pay anomalies. Salman lost around 12 days of shooting and incurred loses worth Rs25 crore due to the protests.

Mumbai, Jun 16: Filmmaker Dibakar Banerjee remembers Sushant Singh Rajput as a dance loving 'chhokra' from an engineering college who, having made it in Bollywood, was “enthused, sincere and totally focused” on his craft.

Banerjeee said the actor always had “a book or two” with him and took pride in the fact that he had an “inner intellectual life away from the shallower aspects of showbiz”.

Rajput was found dead in his Bandra apartment on Sunday at the age of 34, leaving his friends, colleagues and collaborators in a state of shock.

The Patna-born actor and the director worked together in 2015 film "Detective Byomkesh Bakshy!" when Rajput was a relative newcomer in the industry. Banerjee says it was Rajput's vulnerability and willingness to do different that made him stand out for the role.

In an interview with news agency, the filmmaker looks back at Rajput's sincerity, his love for science and astronomy and how an outsider has to work harder than a "mediocre, unmotivated and entitled establishment elite" to succeed in Bollywood.

Excerpts:

You worked with Sushant when he was less than two-year-old in the film industry. What struck you the most in him to cast as Detective Byomkesh Bakshy?

Banerjee: His vulnerability and intensity and the ambition to do different things than the usual Bollywood stuff.

What were your memories of Sushant- the actor and the person?

Banerjee: As an actor he would tense himself up for the scene and then completely plunge in take after take. He would put a lot of value on preparation. He would be up the previous night of the shoot, reading the scene and making notes and land up on the sets all raring to go.

He would be on, ready and give his hundred per cent throughout the shoot of Byomkesh - no matter how hard or long the day. The unit did not really have to worry about him - considering he was the star. That's what I remember - a total pro, enthused, sincere and totally focused.

As a person, he seemed to me a happy dance loving 'chhokra' from an engineering college who had made it in showbiz and now was serious about acting. He was deeply nostalgic about his carefree student days in Delhi. We used to laugh a lot - I remember that quite clearly.

Sushant's friends say that he spoke more about books and his love for astronomy than films and their fate, which is rare for an actor in the industry. Do you also remember him that way?

Banerjee: Totally true. He was a science and astronomy nut. Always had a book or two with him - and was proud of the fact that he had an inner intellectual life away from the shallower aspects of showbiz. I recognized it as a reflex, protective action to prevent the Bollywood swamp sucking him in totally. And also an identity he wanted to protect and project.

Sushant's death has brought to the fore the struggles of outsiders and the alienation they often face from the nepotistic culture of the industry. Did you feel that Sushant was also fighting this battle despite being a successful actor?

Banerjee: We all fight it, day in and out - whether successful or failing. But the trick is to define that success and failure ourselves and not let the narrative constantly forced by the establishment to get to you. Those who know this weather the storm and ultimately survive and thrive.

The biggest unfairness in all this is that it takes double the talent, energy and hard work for an outsider to convince the audience and the industry that he or she is as safe a box office bet as a mediocre, unmotivated and entitled establishment elite.

The media colludes in this by wallowing in family, coterie and celebrity worship. This leads to deep anger and frustration. Those who can let this slide survive. Those who can't - those who hurt a little more or are vulnerable and impressionable - they are at risk.
