The man has now filed a case against Bhushan Kumar and has also taken up the subject of non-payment matter with the Studio Association.

Payment delay

According to a source, "Bhushan Kumar has payment of around Rs 14 lakh pending.

He made a part payment during the making of the movie. After the movie's released, he kept delaying payments.

Karzzzz released October 17 but no payments have been forthcoming since."

Says Deepak, "I supplied Bhushan camera equipment worth Rs 50 lakh. He paid me 36 lakhs during the making of the film. Rs 14 lakhs was still pending.

He gave me a cheque of Rs 2.5 lakh and made it out that he had paid the entire amount with theu00a0 voucher as proof. He has cheated not just me but alsou00a0 several cameramen and technicians who haven't been paid."

On being contacted Bhushan Kumar says, "I am not aware of this. My production team handles these matters. Speak to them."

We did just that. We spoke to Ajay Kapoor of T-Series who says, "We've paid Deepak in full . After the movie, he's done four videos with us. Why would he work with us if he wasn't paid? These are merely pressure tactics."

Says Mr Narang, President of the Studio Association, "It is a private matter. I can't discuss it with you."
