Latest Bollywood flick and India’s first made-in-China film, Chandni Chowk to China, has got another reason to be back in the news. The film, this time, has angered the people of Nepal for its false and deceptive references over the birth place of Lord Buddha.

While speaking on this, Nepalese Information and Communication Minister Krishna Bahadur Mahara said, “Nepal's Council of Ministers headed by Prime Minister Prachanda decided to direct the Foreign Ministry to take up the issue with the agencies concerned in India.”

Last year's runaway hit "Jodha Akbar" dominated the Indian Express Group's Nokia Star Screen Awards with the movie bagging honours including those for Best Actor, Best Director and Best Film.

Superstar Hrithik Roshan, who played the role of Akbar in the film, walked away with the Best Actor award while Ashutosh Gowarikar was adjudged the Best Director.
