Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh’s new film ‘Dhurandhar’ has been embroiled in a legal dispute a few days before its release.
The family of the late Major Mohit Sharma has filed a petition in the Delhi High Court seeking an immediate stay on the release of the film, as they claim that the film is apparently inspired by the life and secret missions of Major Sharma, and that his family’s permission was not obtained for this film.
The petition said that if the film includes elements of real life or missions, then it is a violation of the personal rights and privacy of the deceased’s family and may potentially create national security issues.
The film’s director, Aditya Dhar, quickly clarified that the film has nothing to do with Major Sharma and that permission will be obtained from the family and the Indian Army for any future biopic.
On the other hand, Noreen Aslam, the widow of martyred Sindh Police officer Chaudhry Aslam, has also reacted strongly to this film.
Noreen Aslam criticized the Indian filmmakers, saying that the film portrays Chaudhry Aslam’s character and Rehman Dakit as heroes, and the political party PPP vaguely. Noreen Aslam warned that if any propaganda is made against Chaudhry Aslam in the film, she reserves the right to take legal action.
The film stars Ranveer Singh, Akshay Khanna, and Sanjay Dutt in important roles. The film is expected to be released on December 5, but due to the current legal situation, the release of the film is uncertain.
