After the real-life Maya Dolas' mother took offence to the way she had been portrayed in Shootout At Lokhandwala it's another real-life
mother Kulbir Kaur who has sent producer Sanjay Gupta a legal notice questioning what Gupta thinks is his creative freedom
The legal notice prompted by the report in Mumbai Mirror about the Biapsha Basu arthouse film Pankh, questions White Feather on
the plot about a child actor growing up in androgynous ambiguity being inspired by the life of the child actor Ehsaas Channa, a.k.a
Ashish Channa.
Says Gupta, "The kid's mother Kuldip Kaur wants to know why we've borrowed her son's life. All I can say is, wait till Pankh is ready
for the truth to be out. Since it our company's first arthouse film and also Bipasha's first experimental film Pankh is a very prestigious
project for us.
After the success of Shootout At Lokhandwala, White Feather wants to do more reality-driven films. Pankh is
one of them. We also have Alibaug which is more than partially inspired by my own life"
