Mohenjo Daro case

A man named Akashaditya Lama had alleged that Ashutosh Gowariker stole his script for his upcoming film ‘Mohenjo Daro‘, and had filed the case against the makers of the film. However, yesterday the Bombay High Court dismissed Lama’s plea against the film’s release and also imposed exemplary and punitive costs of Rs 1,50,000 against Lama.

Justice G.S. Patel passed a detailed order and has slammed Lama for approaching various forums and harassing the makers of the film and the lead actor Hrithik Roshan with his false claims and baseless allegations. Patel also criticized Lama for giving interviews to the media regarding his claims.

The spokesperson of Ashutosh confirmed the news and said, “Ashutosh had faith in the legal system and rather than talking about this, he has been engrossed in promoting the film and I’m sure that that is what he will continue to do. Everyone is fully geared up for 12th August and also the Locarno International Film Festival.”

The movie which also stars Pooja Hegde releases on August 12th.
