Bas Itna Sa Khwaab Hai's nightmare!

The Delhi Police today arrested two persons including film producer Tanya Behl on charges of assaulting two city photographers during the shooting of the Abhishek Bachchan starrer Bas Itna Sa Khwaab Hai.

Behl, sister of the film's director Goldie Behl, and a crew member Bhawesh were arrested and charged with wrongful restraint and causing hurt, following a complaint lodged by Indian Express lensman Mustafa Quraishi and freelance photographers Umesh Puri, said Joint Commissioner of Police Suresh Roy.

The duo was later let off on bail, he said.

Asked about Abhishek Bachchan, who has been named as one of the accused in the Police First Information Report, Roy said further investigations were on in the case. The two lensmen were allegedly beaten up by Tanya, Bachchan and some members of the film crew during the shooting at North Block yesterday when they took snaps of onlookers being attacked by sticks by the accused.

Meanwhile, the Delhi Journalists' Association (DJA) has demanded the arrest of Bachchan and film cameraman Sameer Arya for allegedly manhandling the lensmen.

Charging the city police with "helping the culprits, Ras Bihari warned that journalists would be forced to take to the streets if Bachchan and other accused were not arrested.

Joint Commissioner Roy has described the police bias as unfair.
