MNS leader Ameya Khopkar accuses multiplexes of | Indian Movie News
A new controversy is stirring in the Indian movie industry as Ye Re Ye Re Paisa 3, a Marathi-language movie, was reportedly pulled from a number of theatres across Maharashtra just a week after its release. Ameya Khopkar, President of the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena’s (MNS) movie wing, has strongly condemned multiplex chains for allegedly changing the movie to make approach for the Hindi-language romantic drama Saiyaara, backed by Yash Raj Films.
Accusations of Unfair Screen Allotment
Speaking to the press, Khopkar alleged that despite the movie’s July 18 release and a “great response from the audience,” it was shortly dropped from key screens across the state to accommodate Saiyaara, starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda.
“Our film Ye Re Ye Re Paisa 3 was screened in Maharashtra on July 18. On the same day, a Hindi film named Saiyaara was also released,” Khopkar stated. “Even in the heart of Mumbai, there is no place for Marathi films. Multiplexes like Plaza Cinema in Dadar gave all four shows to Saiyaara, completely removing our film.”

Political Fallout and Rising Tensions
Khopkar, while refraining from fast protest, issued a stern warning for the longer term. “I am quiet now because I don’t want to protest for my films. But next time, if any Marathi film faces such treatment, I will break the glasses of multiplexes,” he warned.
His feedback have triggered swift political reactions. Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut took to social media to categorical solidarity, stating: “To accommodate Saiyaara, Ye Re Ye Re Paisa 3 has been sidelined. This has become routine. The fight for Marathi must intensify.”
