Court orders Agneepath producers to deposit Rs.25 lakhs

Karan Johar and Dharma Productions film Agneepath has been creating immense buzz in the industry. However, the film which had run into legal trouble a while back was cleared by the court in Nagpur that has allowed the film to release post the makers depositing Rs. 25 lakhs with the court.

 

The reason behind this order was that Aditya Salankar, a Mumbai based engineer, had filed a petition in the District Court saying that a song written for the film was set to the tune, and recorded by him, with copyrights in his name since March 2009.
