Overview

• Bhagnani names Jolly Jumper Films LLC, registered in Abu Dhabi but allegedly operated from Andheri, Mumbai, saying it is in a Zafar assistant’s name and used for suspicious transactions.
• He alleges the film’s costs were inflated by roughly Rs 70–80 crore, with filings noting a budget revision from about Rs 125 crore to Rs 154 crore.
• The producer says final accounts have been withheld for 11 months and claims Zafar’s team has told industry peers they acted only as directors rather than producers.
• He states his complaint led to an FIR at Bandra police station and alleges forgery, misappropriation and contractual breaches tied to production accounting.
• Bhagnani says he will approach central agencies for a wider probe, and Ali Abbas Zafar has not publicly responded to the fresh allegations.
