Hansal Mehta, the filmmaker behind the Ranveer Singh-starrer Pralay, has responded to allegations raised by the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) regarding the six-hour shoot at Azad Maidan. The MCA claimed that the filming disrupted the schedule of Under-14 and Under-16 inter-school cricket matches, causing them to be postponed.
They also questioned the Maharashtra government's Sports Department for allegedly prioritizing commercial activities over cricket at a ground used primarily by young players. Mehta told Mumbai Mirror that the Pralay team had obtained all necessary permissions to shoot at Azad Maidan and criticized the bureaucratic hurdles filmmakers face while shooting in the city, stating, "But I would like to underscore that Mumbai has been rendered a no-go zone for film shoots because of bureaucratic hurdles. And people like you fuel the fire."
