Delhi High Court Seeks Salman Khan's Response in Kala Hiran Jurisdiction Dispute
The Delhi High Court has issued a notice to Bollywood actor Salman Khan seeking his response to a petition filed by producer Amit Jani regarding the film Kala Hiran: The Battle for Legacy. Jani argues that the Delhi High Court lacks territorial jurisdiction as neither party resides or conducts business there, and requests dismissal of Khan's suit seeking a stay on the film's release. Salman Khan alleges the film infringes on his personality rights by depicting events related to his 1998 blackbuck poaching case. The court has granted Khan four weeks to reply and scheduled further hearing for December 16.
