Mumbai: Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) has imposed a fine of Rs five crore on films with Pakistan actors, say media reports.
MNS chief Raj Thackeray made the announcement on Saturday after meeting Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis and as a condition for allowing films with Pak actors to release in India.
The meeting was also attended by Bollywood personalities such as Karan Kohar, Mukesh Bhatt, Sidharth Roy Kapur, Sajid Nadiadwala and Vijay Singh. Thackeray said the money would go to the Army welfare fund.
He, however, added that producers would have to give it to him in writing that they would not cast Pak actors in future.
Karan Johar’s ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’, which features Fawad Khan, has run into opposition from MNS.
