Film on Mumbai Underworld Figure Hussain Ustara Faces Defamation Suit

Hussain Shaikh, known as Hussain Ustara, was a feared contract killer in Mumbai's underworld, notorious for using a barber's razor as his weapon. Operating mainly from Bapu Khote Street and controlling the Badani Building, he was known for his precision, calm demeanor, and early use of CCTV surveillance. His rivalry with underworld don Dawood Ibrahim was notable. Ustara's life inspired the upcoming film O' Romeo starring Shahid Kapoor, which has faced a defamation suit from his sisters.
