The complainant Manoj Gupta in his petition alleged that he and his partner Anshu Mishra went to watch the film, wherein in one scene of the film, the main character of the film is seen using the word “shameless” for the lawyer while cross-examining the other actors (Anang Dewi) during the court proceedings.
Gupta further in his petition alleged that the word “shameless” is challenging the legal functioning of lawyers and hurts his professional life. He also felt that the word is also defamatory for all the lawyers, and so he has asked the court to punish those responsible for the film, as per the report.
Taking cognizance of the case, Katni court issued a notice to Rustom’s lead actor Akshay Kumar, Zee Entertainment’s Subhash Chandra, director Tinu Suresh Desai, writer Vipul K Rawal, film artist Anang Desai, City Pride Cinema Hall, City Mall Katni owner Suresh Gupta and others.
