Relation of Bollywood with Underworld

From Mamta Kulkarni to Mandakini: Actresses who left Bollywood for ... 

Underworld was at its peak during the 90s when everything from food to movies was controlled by tha dons and mafias. Without them, one could not produce or make their movies. As we all know that the murder of Gulshan Kumar, the founder of T-Series was done by Abu Salem on Nadeem's insistence.

According to Forbes, in January 2001, well-known Indian film director Rakesh Roshan escaped an assassination attempt outside his Mumbai office when he refused to sell the overseas rights of his latest film, Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai, to India’s leading criminal organizations. 

The gangs used to be operated from Dubai and even today Dubai is the base of the underworld and many deadly gangsters operate from there and rule the cinemas. An article from Forbes also claims that Karan Johar during Kuch Kuch Hota Hai had also received threats from the underworld after his movie was released and he was somehow sent away from the eyes of gangsters. 

According to ScoopWhoop, some of the celebrities who has connections with underworld are Salman Khan, Anil Kapoor, Sunil Dutt, Sanjay Dutt, Mandakini, Monica Bedi, Mamta Kulkarni, Anita Ayub, Shah Rukh Khan and many more. 

Thus, if you ever see that a movie is earning crores of rupee always remember that there is underworld money involved in the same. So watch the movies carefully and selectively as you are indirectly funding underworld.
