Hijack the movie: Revisiting Kandahar
MUMBAI (Reuters) - A new Bollywood film about a plane hijacking involving a separatist militant outfit echoes the real life hijacking of an Indian Airlines plane in 1999.
But "Hijack", directed by Kunal Shivdasani, will focus on a rescue operation conducted by lead actor Shiney Ahuja inside the aircraft -- something that did not happen in the Kandahar case.
"It may seem similar to that of the Kandahar hijacking case but 'Hijack' is a purely fictional film," Shivdasani told Reuters.
"We are not pointing fingers at the Kandahar hijackers or which group was responsible behind the incident."
Five armed men hijacked the Airbus A-300 carrying 189 passengers and crew between Kathmandu and New Delhi on Christmas Eve in 1999. The plane touched down in western India, Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates before landing in Kandahar in Afghanistan.
The hijackers killed one passenger early in the week-long stand-off, but the remaining passengers and crew walked free after India released three Kashmir separatist militants from jail.
India said the hijackers, who were never caught, were all Pakistani and accused Pakistan's government of complicity in the hijacking, charges it denied.
British-born Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, one of the freed militants, was later convicted and sentenced to death by a Pakistani court for his role in the murder in 2002 of Daniel Pearl, a reporter for the Wall Street Journal.
"My film is thoroughly commercial and if people come to watch my film due to similarity of the film's plot to that of Kandahar incident, (it's) good for us," Shivdasani said.

Ekta Kapoor denies reports that Pulkit Samrat of KSBKBT serial has won the court case
Pulkit Samrat, who plays Lakshya in the popular soap “Kyunkii Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thiâ€, has accused Ekta kapoor that she had poorly paid and under-utilised and this has bewildered the soap tycoon.
Pulkit has earlier filed a petition in the Bombay High Court against Balaji Telefilms Limited for non-payment and also for a contract that restricted him from working with any other production house for three years. He claims that the case has been won by him.
According to Ektha, “Pulkit seems to have misconstrued what the honorable bench’s verdict. My lawyers know exactly what the court said, and it is not what Pulkit is making it out to be,â€
According to sources in Balajai,Pulkit wanted to give away serials and wanted to work in films. So for that intention, he made some lame excuses on health aspects and hence he could come for 3-4 hours in a day for the shooting. This has disturbed the whole situation as the time table was mismanaged. The whole matter started thereafter. But it is not true that Pulkit has won the case , as the case is still pending in the court. It is understood that he took a break when his track was at its peak in the serial and this has infuriated Balaji camp.
According to reports, Ekta will litigate the newspaper, Mumbai Mirror, for publishing the ambiguous report, which suggested that Pulkit has won the case.
Sanjay Dutt ties knot with Dilnasheen a.k.a. Manyata
Sanjay Dutt tied the knot with Dilnasheen a.k.a Manyata according to the Hindu rituals on 11th February,2007 in Mumbai in one Manyata’s friend’s residence. Sunil Shetty did the job of her brother and did the kanyadan as none from the bride’s family were present. Even Sanjay’s sisters and daughter Trishala were indiscernible in the marriage. According to Priya Dutt, his sister, she was not aware of the marriage, she got the news via the media. According to the grapevine, Sanjay and Manyata had a court marriage on February 7th in Goa.
Now, Manyata’s previous husband Mr. Miraj has entered the scene in a cinematic comportment and claims that she was married to him on 5th April, 2003 in Oshiwala in Mumbai, her real name is Dilnasheen and they have a three year old son from their marriage, who is being brought up by her mother in Dubai and the attention-grabbing and exicting assert made by Mr Miraj is that Manyata is yet to divorce him. He is in possession of a Nikahnama issued by the Mumbai Shariat. If Manyata has not sought divorce from Miraj and is married now to Sanjay, a case of fidelity is probably to be filed against her.
A Few videos also included here...
It is also found that Mr. Miraj is presently in jail serving his term for prank calling female film stars and making indecent SMSs to various heroines and he claims that he used to exercise these activities at the behest of Manyata only. Miraj claims that recently Sanjay Dutt used to confront him and used goondaism to grab Manyata from him by using his power and influence.
Well, if the accusations prepared by Miraj are exact and accurate, Sanjay Dutt who is already undergoing court case against him for possessing AK 57, is likely to countenance more quandary, trouble, hullabaloo, corrupt and immorality case too for convincingly marrying Dilnasheen a.k.a Manyata as she still stands married to Miraj and has not separated from him legally.
