Fugly stars, a NO show at special screening in Leh

Fugly stars, Jimmy Shergill, Mohit Marwah, Kiara Advani, Vijender Singh and Arfi Lamba, skipped the special screening of their film which was arranged for army jawans in Leh. Hence director Kabir Sadanand had to make it alone.

Sadanand clarified about the stars’ absence saying, "At that altitude in Leh, breathing normally is a problem. One needs to acclimatize oneself to the change in temperature gradually as the oxygen is low at that height." He added further, "And there was no time for that for my actors. They were completely tied up with promoting the film on ground level." The screening was a huge successful event in Leh. The director said, "Showing my film to the jawaans was one of the most memorable experiences of my film. They said `Fugly` was a film that made them proud. Their affection and reactions after the film were overwhelming. And to see first hand - the work that the jawaans do at the border, was another experience entirely.” Fugly has been extensively shot in Leh and the cast is looking forward to a holiday at the beautiful place after the film is released. Fugly will open in the cinemas this Friday.
