The civic body has issued Bollywood singer Kunal Ganjawala a notice, asking him to prove the garage he allegedly built in the parking plot of his housing colony at Pali Hill was not illegal.
The civic body action came following months of bickering between Ganjawala and his neighbours at Girnar Apartments.

Residents further allege Ganjawala gets abusive and prevents residents from using the building terrace.
One of the residents and committee member of Pali Hill Residents Association, Amarjeet Bhatti said, “Ganjawala is troubling the members since October last year.
On October 10, we sent him a polite letter requesting him to do away with the illegal garage and office he built on society land.
And this man misbehaved with the watchman who took the letter to him. He and his wife behave rudely with everyone in the society.”

Informs a source attached to Life Partner, “Govinda was unhappy with some of the words in ‘Poorza Poorza‘ which he believed came with a negative connotation. The original lyrics go as ‘Mare Hum, Jab Seene Se Dil Gaya, Hai Poorza Poorza Hil Gaya; Jab Poorza Poorza Hil Gaya, To Dum Sa Nikal Gaya‘. He had problems with ‘Mare Hum’, ‘Seene Se Dil Gaya’ & ‘Dum Sa Nikal Gaya‘. He felt that this was clear indication of death and wanted to avoid them as a part of the song by all means.”
It was a Code Red situation for the entire team of Life Partner, including composer Pritam, and the song had to be changed pronto. Though the song in the CD still appears as per the original recording, the lyrics that find a place in the final print of the film that has just released over the More >
