Delhi High Court Seeks Salman Khan's Response on 'Kala Hiran' Jurisdiction Challenge
The Delhi High Court has issued a notice to actor Salman Khan seeking his response to a petition by producer Amit Jani, who challenged the court's territorial jurisdiction over Khan's suit to restrain the release of the film 'Kala Hiran: The Battle for Legacy.' Jani argued that neither party resides or conducts business within Delhi, and that the film's promotional materials' availability in the capital does not establish jurisdiction. Khan alleges the film infringes on his personality rights, relating to the 1998 blackbuck poaching case. The court has granted Khan four weeks to reply, with a hearing set for December 16.
