Ranbir Kapoor’s film Animal has landed in legal trouble ahead of Netflix release!
Bollywood film Animal is scheduled to release on Netflix on January 26.
However, according to the Indian media reports, the production company has dragged T-Series to court, claiming issues with the profit-sharing agreement.
A case has been filed against the film in the Delhi High Court.
As reported, production house ‘Cine 1 Studios Private Limited’ came forward claiming to be one of the co-producers of the film and that T-Series, the main producer of the blockbuster film has not lived up to the profit-sharing agreement.
Ranbir Kapoor-Starrer Animal has been making headlines since the film was announced and following its release a debate on feminism and misogyny kicked in.
Cine 1 filing the case has demanded a stay on Animal’s OTT release.
According to a PTI report, Cine1 has also claimed that they had a 35 per cent profit share and were entitled to 35 per cent intellectual property rights from Animal.
According to their advocate Sandeep Sethi, Cine 1 received no information about the film’s revenues from box office sales and the digital and satellite rights of the film. He further added that the production house “has not been paid even a single penny.”
On the other hand, T-Series’ lawyer, senior advocate Amit Siba, argued before the court that Cine1 has ‘no investment in the film.’
The lawyer added that T-Series paid Rs 2.6 crore to Cine1 and accused them of concealing ‘this critical and material information from this court.”
When Justice Sanjeev Narula asked Cine1’s lawyer about the alleged payment, the lawyer confessed he was not aware of it because the document wasn’t brought to his notice.
“The lawyer said he will take his client’s instructions and apprise the court,” the PTI report stated.
