Bollywood and controversy goes hand in hand and the latest to fall into the trap of it is none other than the film-maker, Anurag Kashyap as The CBI has started a preliminary inquiry into the allegations of financial embezzlement and violation of norms at the National Film Development Corporation (NFDC), which includes charges that the corporation made excess and undue payments to filmmaker Anurag Kashyap and other film directors.
The Central Bureau of Investigation's anti-corruption branch in a letter dated October 23, addressed to the director (finance) NFDC, had stated that a preliminary inquiry had been launched against unknown officials of the corporation, Sun TV, UFO Movies, Anurag KashyapFilms and other unknown people.
The NFDC was constituted under the Information and Broadcasting Ministry in 1975. It receives central funds and other grants to participate in film festivals and make publicity films for the government.
It has been embroiled in a controversy after its managing director, Nina Lath Gupta, was sacked for allegedly favouring Sun TV networks in February, when Smriti Irani was the Information and Broadcasting Minister.
Gupta re-joined the NFDC following a Delhi High Court order but the Ministry removed her again in May.
The I&B Ministry, however, dropped the charges against her, when Irani was replaced as minister by Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore.
Well, Anurag was denying the charges till now but now, let's see how he responds to this allegation.
