Sheikh Rasheed Reveals Denying Mahesh Bhatt Permission to Film at Lal Haveli

Sheikh Rasheed, leader of the Awami Muslim League and former Federal Minister, has disclosed that acclaimed Bollywood director Mahesh Bhatt sought permission twice to film at his residence, Lal Haveli, but was refused both times.

In a viral video, Sheikh Rasheed shared with the media that Mahesh Bhatt had traveled from India on two separate occasions to request permission to shoot a film at Lal Haveli. Both requests were declined.

Sheikh Rasheed revealed that Bhatt was interested in making a film based on the story of Dhanraj, intending to shoot it entirely at Lal Haveli. Despite the director’s interest, Sheikh Rasheed turned down the requests. He mentioned that any documentaries made about Lal Haveli to date have been produced independently by their creators.

Additionally, Sheikh Rasheed addressed and refuted circulating claims about the size of Lal Haveli, often said to span 19 kanals. He clarified that the property is only about 3 marlas in size and has already designated it in his will to be allocated for academic institutions after his death.
