    Gupta gets NOC to use real-life names in the film

    MUMBAI: The Mumbai police has granted permission to director Sanjay Gupta to name the characters in his film Shootout At Wadala after the real-life policemen involved in the 1982 incident in Mumbai.


    Gupta said, “After we‘ve got a no objection certificate (NOC) from the police department, we‘re free to name any of the cops who were part of the incident.


    “We‘re now in the process of covering all legal hurdles as far as naming every character from the underworld is concerned.”


    In this regard, Gupta had sought the services of Mumbai lawyer Ameet Nayak to be amply sure that all loopholes are plugged so that he can call a spade a spade or a Dawood a Dawood.


    Shootout At Wadala, a prequel the 2007 film Shootout At Lokhandwala, recreates the gunfight in which gangster Manya Surve was shot dead.


    Gupta‘s film will begin with a claimer: “Everything you‘re about to watch happened on the streets of Mumbai.”
