Nikhil Dwivedi files a lawsuit against KRK; gets injunction against his defamatory posts

Kamaal Rashid Khan aka KRK is known for his controversial posts and tweets. He often gets embroiled in controversies for his remarks. Yet again, the self-proclaimed critic has landed himself in trouble. Actor-producer Nikhil Dwivedi has taken action against KRK by dragging him to court for his slanderous tweets and making baseless allegations against him and his company. He was ignoring KRK’s posts last September, but the Dabangg 3 producer filed a lawsuit when KRK again started posting defamatory statements against him in January this year.

The High Court ruled in Nikhil’s favour and granted an injunction against KRK from posting anything about the actor-producer, either directly or indirectly.

Nikhil Dwivedi’s lawyer Kartikeya Desai, said, “Our client Mr Nikhil Dwivedi, an actor, producer has filed a lawsuit against Mr Kamaal R Khan for the slanderous tweets and YouTube videos, which were posted by Mr Kamaal R Khan wherein he had made defamatory statements and also baseless allegations against Mr Dwivedi.
