Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor’s new film ‘O Romeo’ has run into legal troubles even before its release. According to Indian media reports, a legal notice has been sent to the filmmakers against Shahid Kapoor’s upcoming film ‘O Romeo’ by the daughter of a person who is being described as a possible real character in the film’s story.
Hussain Ustra’s daughter, Sanubar Sheikh, has sent a legal notice to the film’s producers, expressing fears that her father could be portrayed negatively in the film, and on this basis, she has demanded Rs 2 crore in damages and demanded payment within 7 days.
According to reports, the notice was sent to producer Sajid Nadiadwala and director Vishal Bhardwaj of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment last week.
The notice claims that ‘O Romeo’ has potentially portrayed Hussain Ustra in a negative light, which could affect the family’s reputation.
According to sources, Sanubar Sheikh has also demanded that the release of the film be stopped or cancelled until his concerns are addressed.
It should be noted that the teaser of the film released on January 10 stated that ‘O Romeo’ is inspired by real events, while speculations are being made that the story of the film may be related to Hussain Ustra and Sapna Didi, however, the filmmakers have not officially confirmed that it is based on any real character yet.
On the other hand, there has been no response from the producers and director yet.
It should be noted that ‘O Romeo’ features a large cast including Shahid Kapoor, Tripti Damri and other artists, while the film will be released in theaters on February 13.
