Bombay HC Judgement
In 2020 singer and lyricist Javed Akhtar filed a criminal defamation case against actress Kangana Ranaut after she claimed that the singer threatened her amid her controversy with Hrithik Roshan. Javed Akhtar had filed the case in Bombay High Court. In response to the case, Kangnana went on to file a complaint before the Magistrate in Mumbai’s Andheri and alleged that Akhtar for “extortion and criminal intimidation.” In her writ petition, Kangana requested the Bombay High Court to put a stay on Javed Akhtar’s criminal defamation against her and also asked for the case to be clubbed with her cross-complaint against the singer. However, the plea was rejected by Justice Prakash Naik who also dismissed the actress’s plea for clubbing the case with the cross-complaint. The judge noted that Kangana Ranaut never intended for the two cases to be treated as cross-cases and also denied putting stay orders on the proceedings of the case, as per a report by Live Law.
