A legal dispute between the makers of Tamil film Kaithi and the Hindi remake Bholaa has taken a new turn with the Bombay High Court ruling in favor of the former.
The Bombay High Court has held that it has jurisdiction to hear Dream Warrior Pictures' suit against Reliance Entertainment and Ajay Devgn Ffilms over Bholaa, the 2023 Hindi remake of Tamil hit Kaithi.
The case revolves around a tripartite agreement signed on April 1, 2023, involving Dream Warrior Pictures, Reliance Entertainment, and Ajay Devgn Ffilms LLP. Dream Warrior Pictures claimed that the second and third instalments due under the earlier agreement were not paid.
The production house issued a legal notice demanding ₹4 crore along with interest on October 28, 2024, and warned that failure to clear dues within 30 days would lead to termination of the agreement and reversion of all rights.
The case will next be heard on April 30.
