Overview
- Priyadarshan, in a Pinkvilla interview on Friday, rejected reports that Tabu’s scenes in Bhooth Bangla were trimmed or that a rift followed.
- He said he alone controls the edit and stated that everything Tabu shot appears in the final cut.
- The director added that Akshay Kumar did not ask for any cuts and does not interfere in post-production.
- There have been no published, direct rebuttals from Tabu or Akshay, and coverage has largely carried the director’s account.
- Trade trackers report a healthy run for the April 17 release, with India net around Rs 128 crore and gross about Rs 152 crore, helping explain the scrutiny of the rumour.
