Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment (NGE) is a renowned film production house that has been an integral part of the Indian film industry for over 75 years. During this time, we have produced numerous blockbuster films while consistently nurturing warm, professional relationships with all stakeholders in the industry. Our approach has always been guided by the best interests of every segment of the film fraternity.
We are firm supporters of the freedom of speech and expression as enshrined in the Constitution of India. We have never objected — and will never object — to fair criticism or reviews of our films. On the contrary, we believe that constructive criticism is essential for helping filmmakers grow and for fostering the healthy development of the industry.
However, we recently came across evidence — including call recordings — indicating that a few individuals were demanding money and threatening to malign the reputation of our films, directors, and lead actors if their demands were not met. We believe such behaviour warrants investigation by the appropriate authorities. Accordingly, we have referred the matter to the relevant investigative agencies for lawful action.
We wish to emphasize that these actions are directed solely at those engaging in such malicious practices and not at any genuine, independent reviewers or YouTubers. We value honest work and wholeheartedly welcome their contributions to the healthy progress of the film industry.
