In response to the recent spate of violence againt Indian students in Australia, Bollywood filmmakers have decided not to shoot films in that country.
The rising attacks on Indians in the last two weeks have shaken the film industry. In a latest development, the Federation of Western India Cine Employees Association has sent letters to all producers requesting them not to choose Australia as the destination for their film shoots.
Speaking to rediff.com, Dinesh Chaturvedi, General Secretary, FWICE, said, "We have given instructions to all our associations that they should not shoot films in Australia as the situation is not normal over there. Many of the producers have agreed to our demands; they have either postponed or cancelled their shoots."
Australia became one of the most favoured film destinations ever since Farhan Akhtar shot his debut film Dil Chahta Hai in 2000.
