Though director Jai Prakash Shaw`s Market was launched amidst great fanfare with Manisha Koirala, Shweta Menon and Yukta Mookhey, to be playing sex workers, the shooting has been momentarily put off. Reason being Manisha`s newly accquired professionalism. She is insisting that a copy of the film`s bound script be given to her first.
This issue seems to form a hatrick of controversies, which the actress from Nepal has recently been involved in. First it was the use of a body double in Shashilal Nair`s film Ek Choti Si Love Story. Next it was the allegation by iDreams Productions that the concept of Manisha`s debut venture as a producer, Paisa Vasool belonged to them.
The actress who seems to be enjoying a fresh release of career and controversy, is in no mood to land in yet another soup or scoop. The actress who is also playing the protagonist in Return From Taliban, based on a real life story, sure is getting militant about her rights.
