Action Replayy, the film which has Akshay Kumar and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in the cast and is supposed to release on the 5th of November has run into troubled waters. The Pro
ducer-director of the film, Vipul Shah has been served with a legal notice due to the nonpayment of dues to Eros Worldwide FZ LLC. The latter has filed a suit in the Mumbai High Court and is looking forward to the payment of Rs. 6.56 crore which was due to be paid to them by Shah and in the case of inability to do so, the release of the film in question should be stayed. Justice JH Bhatia would be hearing the case on the 4th of November.
According to a suggestion put forward by the court, both the parties in question should try to look for an out of court settlement in the coming two days.
The petition says: “The defendant (Shah) be restrained from exhibiting, causing to exhibit, releasing, communicating to the public in any manner, exploiting, delivering the prints to any third party or in any other manner exploiting or suffering the exploitation of the film Action Replayy which is scheduled to be released in first week of November.” Eros has also said that if the petition is not granted then Shah might amass profits by creating third party rights.
Eros declared that Shah is facing a huge financial crunch because his last film, London Dreams did not manage to fair well at the box office.
