Meghana Gaonkar's Trouble To Charminar

The hugely expected film "Charminar' directed by R.Chandru is hitting the theatres shortly. While the expectation barometer of the film is showing an upward trend, there has been a controversy about which the film's heroine Meghana Goankar is quite upset, though every thing has gone perfectly legal and according to norms of practice seen in the industry.   
The issue relates to R.Chandru's decision to get Deepu to dub her voice after  he found the film's heroine Meghana Goankar's creeky voice not suitable for making an impact. Though Meghana had dubbed her voice, a run over of the film seen by many people connected to the film thought that dubbing work by a better artist will enhance the impact. Any director may get the dubbing work done by any other artist which is considered perfectly alright in the film industry.

But Meghana has found R.Chandru's action objectionable. She has taken the networking route to record her unhappiness about this development.  Her friends have been equally critical and said that directors like Chandru have failed to use the voice of Kannada artists properly.  Meghana has said that  she has lot of confidence on her and such things will not affect her career.
What is surprising is that Meghana Gaonkar is now not showing active interest in promoting the film after this incident.  Recently director R.Chandru had organised a promotional programme of the film in Sahakarinagar in Bengaluru, but the heroine did not make her presence.
Quite  naturally director Chandru became upset with the attitude of the heroine, but has not been able to understand the reasons for the changed attitude.  May be Meghana Gaonkar is too young in the industry to understand that such things happen in the industry and voice dubbing is the prerogative of the director.   Director Shashank did not record Radhika Pandit's voice in  "Krishnan Love Story' though the actress had delivered a mind blowing performance in the film.   But Radhika did not take the matter quite seriously, though she was hurt that  her voice was not used for the film.  The fact was that Radhika was not even called to dub for the film.  But the actress participated in all the promotional programmes of the film.
R.Chandru has made his ambitious film "Charminar' by his sweat and blood.  He has borrowed money to realise the dream of making a touching romantic film.  At this juncture he needs support from all including all the artists who have helped him during the shoot.  Minor skirmishes should be forgotten as to see that "Charminar' will have a smooth release.
