He has no right to make a movie of my life. I’m searching for an interim injunction. The teaser has already been released,” Sethi submitted before the court.<\/p>\n In accordance with Khan’s legal team, the actor’s consent was never obtained for the project despite alleged references to events associated along with his life and legal history. The filmmakers’ counsel, nonetheless, requested time to put their response on record, stating that that they had received a duplicate of the appliance only recently.<\/p>\n Dispute over alleged use of actor’s identity<\/strong><\/p>\n Salman Khan’s plea centres on claims that Kala Hiran: The Battle for Legacy<\/em> draws inspiration from the 1998 blackbuck hunting case, despite not explicitly naming the actor.<\/p>\n In accordance with the appliance, promotional material released for the film comprises visual and contextual references that make Khan identifiable to the general public. The plea cites a poster released in May 2026 that allegedly depicts a personality resembling the actor and wearing a bracelet much like his well-known blue one.<\/p>\n The actor has also objected to promotional content that allegedly portrays the character carrying a firearm, arguing that such depictions create a misleading impression, particularly since he was acquitted in proceedings related to the Arms Act.<\/p>\n Concerns over pending legal matters<\/strong><\/p>\n The applying further argues that portions of the proposed film seem like based on issues which might be still pending before higher courts. In accordance with Khan’s legal team, the dissemination of such material could potentially influence public perception and affect ongoing legal proceedings.<\/p>\n In the course of the hearing, Sethi also argued that the respondents mustn’t be permitted to proceed using Salman Khan’s identity and public image for promotional purposes without authorization.<\/p>\n Filmmakers oppose interim injunction<\/strong><\/p>\n The respondents opposed the grant of any interim relief.<\/p>\n In the course of the proceedings, counsel representing the filmmakers informed the court that he had allegedly been receiving death threats and had filed an FIR in reference to the matter.<\/p>\n After hearing submissions from each side, the court noted that counsel for the producer and director had only recently received the whole pleadings. It directed Salman Khan’s legal team to supply the total set of documents to the respondents throughout the day.<\/p>\n The respondents within the case include producer Amit Jani, Jani FireFox Movies, director Bharat Shrinate, Akshay Pandey, and other individuals related to the project.<\/p>\n Also Read:\u00a0\u201cSalman Khan isn\u2019t God, he can\u2019t stop me\u201d: Kala Hiran director fires back amid legal notice row over alleged similarities<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Catch us for up to date Bollywood News, Latest Bollywood Movies update, Box office collection, Latest Movies Release , Bollywood News Hindi, Entertainment News, Bollywood Live News Today & Upcoming Movies 2026 and stay updated with latest hindi movies only on Bollywood Hungama.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u00a0The Delhi High Court on Friday deferred the hearing on actor Salman Khan’s plea searching for to restrain the filming, promotion, and release of the proposed film Kala Hiran: The Battle for Legacy.
