Is it an eight or twenty?

The controversy surrounding Meera Jasmine's non appearance in ‘Twenty Twenty’ the movie produced by AMMA, has reached a new stage with the persons involved starting to debate on another issue. According to Meera, actor Dileep, the executive producer of the movie has asked her to allot 22 days for the movie, this month.

Meera cites that allotting around a month for the film was that which prevented her to make a try to appear in the movie. Since she has already given much of the month's dates to another south Indian movie, she thought acting in parts for lesser days will spoil the entire schedule of the AMMA movie. “That’s why I chose to refrain from acting in the movie,'' says Meera.

But according to Dileep, he has just asked Meera for eight days, to do the character in the film. Dileep is in the view that Meera has some misunderstanding about the dates.

“Since the total schedule didn't last for 22 days, how can I ask her to allot that much of days for the movie,'' asks Dileep.

Dileep, who was refused the dates, is reported to have told Meera that she is not as busy as Nayantara, the other big actress from Malayalam, who found time to do just an item song for five days, to be a part of the film. This seems to have provoked Meera who then refused to take calls from AMMA.

With plenty of actors, schedules, eventful shootings and controversies AMMA's maiden venture 'Twenty Twenty' continues to be in the daily news for one thing or another.
