John Abraham’s upcoming film ‘Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran’ has been through a lot of ups and downs. A few days ago, John Abraham’s production house JA Entertainment ended up in a lockdown with KriArj Entertainment, the former terminated their contact. And today, the movie has found itself in another controversy. Not many would be aware that on Thursday, John had released the first teaser of his film and shared the news on his Twitter handle. But after a while, the teaser was removed from YouTube and from Twitter as well. The reason behind this is that KriArj Entertainment is not letting John release anything regarding this upcoming film.

After YouTube, the teaser of ‘Parmanu’ was removed from Twitter as well. It’s been taken down from all the accounts due to copyright claim by KriArj Entertainment. In Twitter’s DMCA Takedown Notice, the KriArj Entertainment has shared, “Teaser of #Parmanu is also owned by KriArj Ent & Mr. @TheJohnAbraham has gone ahead and released the same without the consent of KriArj Ent. The said content is an asset from the co-produced movie ‘PARMANU’ which is currently under litigation and is under legal dispute between KriArj Entertainment and JA Entertainment. A police complaint and public notice has already been filed against JA Entertainment by Kriarj Entertainment regarding the dispute & can be produced on request.” (Also Check: John Abraham evades paparazzi because of ‘Parmanu’ controversy?)
