Rodents not allowed on Krrish 3 sets

Producer-director Rakesh Roshan has been denied permission by the Animal Welfare Board of India (AWBI), to use rodents in his film Krrish 3 in spite of the assurance that the rodents would be taken care of and not caused any harm on the sets.

Rakesh Roshan wanted to use rats in one of the scenes for which his production house sent an application to sought permission to the AWBI. AWBI not only denied permission but also demanded an explanation for the scorpions, frogs, snakes and other reptiles that were earlier found on their sets.

The makers are now planning to use dummies for long shots and computer graphics for the close-ups of the rodents.
