\'Why did Kangana work with Mahesh Bhatt again?\'

There is one voice that has come out in defence of filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt and that is of writer Shagufta Rafique,who had written 2 of Kangana Ranaut's films 'Wo lamhe' and 'Raaz the mystery continues'. Shaqufta, who has worked with Mahesh Bhatt's company for 13 years as a writer, has refuted the actress's allegations of the filmmaker hurling a shoe at her and raising his hand on her.

Rafique said, "I have been hearing all that has been spoken about Bhatt Saab by Kangana Ranaut. I do agree that he shouted at her and there are reasons for it.'' However, she dismisses the stories of the filmmaker hitting with a shoe as completely untrue. "He did raise his voice at her at the 'Woh Lamhe' (2006) trial when she came late for the show...There were some shooting issues and that she had turned down a film which of course is her right, But she is going back to the past and adding something that never happened at all. The entire unit was present for the trial show, including Mohit Suri, Mukesh Bhatt and rest of the Star cast..I was a witness that yes he did yell at her too much but It is just not in his nature to do something that he is being accused of," she elaborated.

Shagufta also questions allegations of nepotism leveled against Mahesh Bhatt. She said, "I came from nowhere, I was a bar singer who found it difficult to get my first break too as a writer, but it was Bhatt Saab who gave me my first break and changed my whole life...He is one of the very few who has worked with so many new comers.launched the careers of actors writers musicians lyricists etc.. So the question of nepotism and Mahesh bhatt does not arise at all."


Shaqufta wrote Raaz: The Mystery Continues (2009), the last film that Kangana did with the Bhatts. She said, "If such an incident had happened with her and she had a problem with Mahesh bhatt, why did she work with vishesh films at all, is a question she needs to ask herself...
