All’s not well on the sets of Knock Out

A tiff broke out between actor Irrfan Khan and producer Sohail Maklai on the sets of Knock Out that put director Mani Shankar in a dilemma. Buzz has it that Irrfan did not report on the sets and this sparked off the row.

Irrfan apparently kept the unit waiting every single day. “Finally Sohail lost his patience and yelled at Irrfan over the phone. It is alleged that Irrfan refused to cooperate because his payments were not cleared yet. Sohail is then said to have assured Irrfan that the issue will be sorted out and coaxed him to come to the sets. The next day, Irrfan turned up and Mani Shankar could finally resume shooting,” said a source.

When contacted, Irrfan Khan said, “It’s untrue. Sohail paid me my fee long before the shoot was over.”
