Owner Sushant Jain also seeks some compensation from the makers of the film. The notice says, “(by) such an act of deliberate infringement, you are attempting to misrepresent and deceive the public at large into believing that your film enjoys the patronage, sponsorship and endorsement of our clients, and/or that such use as is described above in your said feature film is under license from our client, which facts are neither true nor correct. In fact, it is our client’s wish that our client does not want to have any association with you, your feature film and/or its consequent success or failure”.
Reportedly, the Ghantewala sweet shop at Chandni Chowk was running since ages, from the time of Mughal throne but the shop shut down last year. Also, Shah Rukh Khan is facing another legal suit for his upcoming film ‘Raees‘ and all we can say that the actor settles down with everything before the release of the film.[/tps_footer]
