Losses mount amid protest over Akshay Kumar starrer “Sooryavanshi”
Jalandhar, November 8
Amid the ongoing protest by farmers against Akshay Kumar starrer, “Sooryavanshi”, cinema halls in the district have suffered a loss of over Rs 10 lakh. One of the theatres today issued refunds of about 150 tickets.
Members of various farm outfits and NGOs supporting farmers’ movement today reached MBD Mall to stop the screening of the film. They claimed they would not allow the actor’s movies to be screened as he had in past made statements against the farmers’ agitation.
Members of the Azaad Kisan Sangharsh Committee (Punjab) and Doaba Kisan Sangharsh Committee staged a dharna outside the mall here. — TNS
