The Delhi High Court expressed displeasure over filmmaker Rajeev Rai's conduct, asking him to refrain from escalating a dispute over a song in Dhurandhar 2.
The court referred the parties to mediation after Trimurti Films filed a copyright infringement suit against Aditya Dhar's production house and T-Series.
A bench of Justice Tushar Rao Gedela observed that restraint in public commentary on sub judice matters is expected once a litigant invokes the judicial process.
The court made these remarks while dealing with an application filed by Dhar's production house and T-Series seeking to restrain Rai from making statements against them.
Rai's lawyer undertook that no statements would be made against the opposing parties in the press until May 6, the next date of hearing.
