Madhur Bhandarkar’s Indu Sarkar, which released last week, is set during the emergency in India in the 70s, and has courted a lot of controversy since its trailer was released, on account of some political parties calling for a ban.
However, the Supreme Court eventually refused to stay the release of the film.
Talking about the situation, Bhandarkar was recently quoted saying that he is upset with other filmmakers who didn’t support his film.
“I am really upset as I had hoped to get a good response and support from the industry, but I did not receive it. They might have their own reasons for this.
Perhaps, since the film was tagged as a political drama, they thought it best not to get involved in the controversy,” he said.
The filmmaker has not been vocal about any other projects after Indu Sarkar.
