After the turn of south actress Khushboo, it’s the turn of Mumbai girls Anaya Das and Neelakshi Singh to face the ire of the moral police down south. While shooting for a film in Cochin which involved some lesbian and kissing scenes, some locals intervened and disrupted the shoot, shouting slogans and pelting the sets with stones. While the issue probably got sorted out for the Production House, much more was in store for the artistes.

Meanwhile, Neelakshi Singh who returned to her home town Mumbai registered a complaint with the Versova Police Station after she got a spate of threatening calls for her comments on the virginity issue and her support of Khushboo.


According to Flynn Remedios, publicist for Red Ruby Films the shooting was disrupted for about three hours on Thursday. The production managed to convince the troublemakers and the shooting resumed after a long lunch and tea break. However, when Neelakshi Singh returned to Mumbai, she was harassed by threatening and hate calls. She initially ignored the phone calls, but when one caller threatened her and her family with dire consequences, she approached the Versova Police Station in suburban Mumbai on Sunday and registered a complaint (NC No 717 u/s 506 IPC).

On Thursday, at a press interaction, Neelakshi Singh had supported actress Khushboo saying that men should not expect their wives to be virgins in the 21st century and if they expected their wives to stay celibate till marriage they should do the same and lead from the front. “Men should not preach to their wives about celibacy and virginity when they themselves lead colorful lives before marriage and indulge in bachelor parties which are nothing short of carnal orgies,” said Neelakshi to a cable channel in Cochin. Neelakshi’s comments were immediately reported by the local regional press and cable channels.

Mumbai girls Neelakshi Singh and Anaya Das were shooting for the film Jhansi Ki Rani – The Great Escape. The film based on the British version of the historic tale of the Jhansi Ki Rani is controversial in nature but is based on authentic records by a British historian as mentioned in his books. The film produced by the Cochin-based Red Ruby Films is being made in Tamil, but will be dubbed in about four additional languages including Hindi, Bengali and English.
