Fight between Ranveer Singh's driver and bodyguard disrupts Padmavati shooting

Entertainment, Pollywood

Ranveer Singh’s driver got into a fight with Ranveer's bodyguard which ended up disrupting the shooting of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmavati, which stars Ranveer, Deepika Padukone and Shahid Kapoor. According to the officials, the driver allegedly hasn’t been paid his salary for two months.

Sources said that the driver got into an argument off-set with Ranveer’s personal manager over non-payment of two month’s salary, an alleged amount of Rs 85,000. The manager instead asked the bodyguard to take the driver off the premises, following the disturbance in the shooting of their next movie Padmavati which was halted because of the fight.

Reportedly, the chaos only calmed when Bhansali himself came out and dispersed the crowd and stopped the fight. Subsequently, the driver, who was immediately dismissed, unsuccessfully lobbied Ranveer’s sister for his salary of the two months which was not paid to him.

However, Bhansali’s team has reported the entire news “completely ridiculous” and stating Bhansali was not present at or aware of any such incident. His official spokesperson said, "The report is ridiculous. Sanjay Leela Bhansali is not even aware that something like this happened."

Ranveer' next 'Padmavati' with Deepika Padukone and Shahid Kapoor is all set to be release on December 1 this year.
