Jun 25: He won the National Award for his film Jolly LLB, but then has been in the news for all the wrong reasons. Well, we are talking about the director Subhash Kapoor who was arrested on Monday (June 23, 2014) on charges of molestation by actor Geetika Tyagi.

Geetika Tyagi says that she feels empowered and now would go all the way to fight her way to get justice.

“I had approached the cops way back in February 2014, then filed the complaint in April and finally Subhash Kapoor gets arrested in June 2014. This clearly shows that a lot of powerful forces have been protecting him but no one gets arrested without ¬reason. It’s the first step to my win and I am looking ahead now,” says Geetika Tyagi, who was seen in films such as Aatma, What The Fish and One by Two.

Geetika Tyagi had filed a complaint against Subhash Kapoor at Mumbai’s Versova Police Station in April, ¬alleging that he came to her house in May 2012 and touched her inappropriately under the influence of alcohol.

Earlier in February this year, Geetika Tyagi tweeted a link to a video, in which she was seen accusing Subhash Kapoor of forcing himself on her, while Subhash Kapoor’s wife, Dimple Kharbanda, was seen ¬pleading with Geetika Tyagi and her boyfriend, director Atul Sabharwal, to keep the ¬matter private. Atul Sabarwal, Geetika Tyagi‘s boyfriend has directed the film Aurangzeb.

“Subhash was like an elder brother. I knew him and his family for nine years. I’ve seen his son grow up, and we’ve organised his birthday parties together. I was so shocked after that night that I didn’t know what to do. His wife would request me to keep the matter a secret for the future of their son, saying how he ill-treats her, too, but she has to put up with him because of her ailing mother. I am not one to put up with such abuse,”clarified Geetika.

Well, if all this was not enough drama director Tigmanshu Dhulia has tweeted in support of Subhash Kapoor and wrote, “If the film industry has any heart, they should boycott Atul Sabarwal as he was part of this vicious scheme to demean Subhash Kapoor.”

Now, who is right and who is wrong we shall get to know as the case unfolds.

Mumbai, Aug 2: Oscar-winning director Alfonso Cuaron has come aboard as an executive producer on filmmaker Chaitanya Tamhane's movie The Disciple. The Marathi feature is set to represent India at the 77th edition of the Venice Film Festival. It will be screened in the Competition section of the prestigious film gala.

The movie, which is Tamhane's follow-up to his National Award-winning feature Court, has also been selected for 2020 Toronto International Film Festival's official line-up.

"I met Chaitanya through a mentorship program where I had the opportunity to watch his very superb debut film, Court  I was immediately impressed by his sense of cinema and fearless confidence to tell stories.

"He was part of most of Roma's process and I jumped to the opportunity to be part of the process of his second film The Disciple. I believe Chaitanya is one of the most important new voices of contemporary cinema," Cuaron said in a statement.

Tamhane said he is honoured to have Cuaron aboard the film.

"It’s a bit surreal and an incredible honour for me to have one of the most recognised and acclaimed filmmakers in the world be part of 'The Disciple'. In some ways, this validation from Alfonso Cuaron is even more," he added.

The Disciple, a 127-minute long feature, stars Aditya Modak, Arun Dravid, Sumitra Bhave, and Kiran Yadnyopavit. It has been produced by “Sir” actor Vivek Gomber through his Zoo Entertainment Pvt. Ltd.

The Disciple marks Tamhane’s return to Venice after he won the Best Film - Orizzonti and Lion of the Future award for Court in 2014.

Court, a poignant commentary on India's judicial system, also won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in 2015 and was India's official entry for the Best Foreign Film at the 2016 Oscars.

Endeavor Content will sell North American rights and New Europe Film Sales boards the film as an international sales agent.
