Producer Allu Arvind of Geetha Arts on
Thursday sought injunction against the release of Sushant Singh Rajput
starrer "Raabta", which is slated to hit the screens on June 9, over
copyright infringement.
Arvind claims the story of "Raabta" is very similar to his Telugu film
"Magadheera".
"This is to inform to the large public that we, Geetha Arts the
original makers of 'Magadheeraa' felt through various sources including
the trailer and publicity material that the Hindi film 'Raabta' is
being remade violating the copyrights," Arvind said in a statement.
He further added that they have approached a Hyderabad court seeking
injunction against the film's release.
"The Hyderabad civil court issued notice to 'Raabta' producers and
posted the matter for June 1 to decide whether 'Raabta' should be
permitted to release," he said.
Directed by S.S. Rajamouli and starring Ram Charan, "Magadheera" is the
story of two estranged lovers meeting in another life.
"Raabta", directed by Dinesh Vijan, also stars Kriti Sanon.
