News by : (cricketaddictor) -

As per the court's observation, the sports drama violated the Indian National Cricket Team's former skipper Sourav Ganguly’s personality rights. The court, however, refused to make any interference with the screening of the movie, which was released last month, on October 23.

The film named "Doosra: India’s Other Freedom Struggle" is directed by Abhinay Deo and stars Plabita Borthakur, Ankur Vikal and Samidha Guru. According to a Bar and Bench report published on November 6, within two days, a disclaimer in Hindi and in English must be added to the movie, both at the start and the end of the movie.

Film makers will have to an unconditional bank guarantee of Rs. 2 crore

Further, in the hearing, Justice Karia ordered the makers of the film to furnish an unconditional bank guarantee of Rs. 2 crore. They will have to submit this to the Court's registrar in two weeks. The court also mentioned that if the defendants fail to comply with the orders within the given time frames, then they and those who are acting for the defendants will be restrained from making commercial use of the movie.

What is the main issue?

It has been learnt that they have pointed out an issue in the scene where the filmmakers have portrayed the Indian cricket team's NatWest cricket series final and the iconic celebration of Sourav Ganguly on the Lord's balcony. Later, during the marketing, screening, trailer launch, and other commercial events of the movie, the makers allegedly misused the rights in a wrong way.

On the other hand, Senior Advocate Saurabh Kirpal, with advocates Ameet Naik, Madhu Gadodia, Sanjeevi Seshadri, Dhruv Anand, Sakshi Dube, Unnati Gambani, and Khushi Agarwal, represented the filmmakers.
