Shakun Batra was shooting in Goa a while ago with Deepika Padukone, Ananya Panday and Siddhant Chaturvedi. The film is a production by Karan Johar. Yesterday we informed you that the Karan’s production house, Dharma Production came under fire for garbage littering on the sets.
Now, Dilip Borkar who’s the Goa line producer defended the production house. They said that it was only one day that the garbage was not picked up but got it removed immediately.
Taking to his Twitter page Dilip released a statement. It read, “There is a dearth of waste disposal management companies in North Goa where the shoot was being held. Due to the non-availability of private vendors. I hired and paid the panchayat garbage vendors to segregate and collect the garbage generated at the shoot location.”
“Unfortunately on one particular Monday, the garbage pick-up truck was unable to reach the dumping site due to a breakdown. Upon receiving this information my team immediately hired another special truck and had the garbage cleared.”
“I repeat and reiterate that we have taken all the necessary steps to dispose off the garbage in the manner suggested by the government and we continue to adhere to the guidelines provided.”
