Khan’s suit against the movie, citing lack of territorial jurisdiction.
The Delhi High Court on Friday sought Bollywood actor Salman Khan’s response to a petition filed by the makers of “Kala Hiran: The Battle for Legacy”, which requested the court to reject Mr.
The film’s makers had told the court that the movie was not ready to be released as it is yet to get certification from the censor board and even the trailer has not been released. Mr. Khan was granted four weeks to file his response. He contended that mere accessibility of the film’s teasers, posters and related publications in the national capital cannot confer jurisdiction on the Delhi High Court. Mr. Khan’s restraint application is part of his lawsuit for protection of his personality rights.
The matter has been listed for hearing on December 16.
In his petition, Amit Jani said neither the plaintiff nor any of the defendants resides or carries on business within the Delhi High Court’s territorial jurisdiction.
