Ranveer Singh to be boycotted by Bollywood?
India, May 27 -- Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) has issued a Non-Cooperation Directive (NCD) against actor Ranveer Singh amid his reported fallout with filmmakers Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani over his exit from Don 3. The directive, issued on Monday, bars FWICE-affiliated technicians and workers from working with the actor until the issue is resolved. At a press con, FWICE honorary general secretary Ashok Dubey said, "An artiste becomes an artiste because of the people, because of the members who work with us, the technicians, those who watch the movies. You leave a film which many people have worked on for three years. We wrote a letter to you but there was no reply so no member from FWICE will work with you." Following the press con, the actor's team issued a statement: "Ranveer Singh holds the highest regard for the film fraternity and for everyone associated with the Don franchise. Throughout the recent developments surrounding Don 3, he has consciously chosen to maintain silence, believing that professional discussions and personal equations are best handled with dignity, maturity and mutual respect.
Speaking to us, FWICE president BN Tiwari says, "Producers humare saath hi milke Ranveer se baat karna chahte hain. Federation stands with justice and my duty is that this matter gets resolved."
The NCD could affect Ranveer's upcoming projects, including Hansal Mehta's Pralay. "Shooting toh usko rokna padega. Abhi unka set lagne waala hai wo nahin lagega. Humne bol diya sabko," he adds, insisting that FWICE was not "punishing" the actor but seeking dialogue.
Filmmaker Sanjay Gupta reacted to the row on X: "When an A List Hero shoots there are more than 300 workers working on sets. Ban him and you are not stopping him but depriving the workers of their livelihood. What sense does it even make?"...
