ICYMI, Tanushree Dutta was roped in by the makers of Horn Ok Pleassss for an item song in the film. She did not complete the song after alleging that Nana Patekar misbehaved with her on the sets. She locked herself up in the van and was later attacked by goons from a political party. After that incident, Tanushree slowly vanished away from Bollywood and has been living in the US for two years now. The actress has spoken at length about the incident after her return to India and has found support from stars like Priyanka Chopra, Farhan Akhtar, Richa Chaddha, Anurag Kashyap and Sonam Kapoor.
Nana Patekar will be flying specially to Mumbai for the same as he is in Jaisalmer shooting for his next film, Housefull 4 along with actors Bobby Deol, Riteish Deshmukh and Akshay Kumar. The media has been widely covering the incident and Nana's silence has become a talking point. We are sure this is not the end of the matter.
