Ali Abbasi Gives His Side Of Golden Globes Afterparty Grope & Parting With U.S. Reps; Calls It A Playful ‘Slap On The Rear’ Of An Actor He Considered A Friend


Ali Abbasi Gives His Side Of Golden Globes Party Incident And Parting Ways With U.S. Reps

But it shook up the town yesterday, because Abbasi, an Iranian-born filmmaker, was rising in the ranks after the lauded The Apprentice and following up on earlier films like Holy Spider.

I remain grateful for the incredible work of our cast, crew and supporters on The Apprentice, and I hope the focus stays on their achievements.
