In a legal blow to Tanushree Dutta, a Mumbai court has rejected her plea against the relief granted to veteran actor Nana Patekar in the #MeToo case she had filed. Despite the setback, Tanushree remains undeterred and has vowed to continue her fight with even greater determination.

Taking to social media, Tanushree Dutta insisted that she has some ‘good news’ to share with her fans, wherein she said, “The court has cancelled the B-summary report filed by the Mumbai Police on the Horn Ok Pleassss sexual harassment complaint against Nana Patekar and others. The police had tried to close the case in 2019 by citing a false and malicious B-summary report without even talking to any of my witnesses, meanwhile my witnesses all were getting threats by Nana's goons and underworld liasons. Recently one of our prime witness directly deposited her testimony against Patekar in court and corroborated my whole complaint and also the fact that she was pressured into silence by unknown men threatening her over fone. The court took cognizance of this witness testimony via a filed affidavit and came to the conclusion that the B summary report by the police cannot be accepted by court. So we have won this case and now the Mumbai Police will have to file a chargesheet on the matter”.

“Me and my legal team have won the case, and any media house that is printing a false totally opposite story will have to answer the court and will by default become a party to the harassment case. The court has dismissed/ cancelled/refused to take cognizance of the B-summary report filed by police on the 2008 harassment incident on the Horn ok please movie set. Nana Patekar tried to close the case on himself by filing a B summary but court has rejected it. So the case is still open and the police will have to file a chargesheet on the case against Nana. Stop spreading fake news because this is my season of victory. Chargesheet will be filed soon on Nana Patekar and others as police have no other option now”, she wrote in yet another post among the many she shared on the platform.

Speaking about the case, on Friday, the Metropolitan Magistrate’s Court in Andheri officially disposed of two sexual harassment cases filed by Tanushree against Nana Patekar, choreographer Ganesh Acharya, director Rakesh Sarang, and producer Abdul Sami Abdul Gani Siddiqui. The complaints, registered at the Oshiwara police station in October 2018, were related to alleged incidents that took place in March 2008 and October 2010 on the sets of the film Horn Ok Pleassss. Metropolitan Magistrate NV Bansal ruled that the first case would be closed, as the police had submitted the closure reports beyond the permissible time frame.

This legal decision follows a previous ruling where another Mumbai court had dismissed the case against Nana Patekar and the three co-accused. While the verdict marks a significant legal hurdle for Tanushree Dutta, she has reiterated her commitment to seeking justice, emphasizing that this outcome has only strengthened her resolve.

Bombay High Court orders stays the release of Hamare Baarah, two days before the film’s release June 07, 2024 at 01:02PM

By Banglore Film City
Hamare Baarah, which is making news for its bold approach and thought-provoking plotline, has been mired in controversy, with the makers landing in deep trouble. The highly anticipated release of Annu Kapoor, Manoj Joshi, and Paritosh Tripathi starrer, has encountered a significant setback as the Bombay High Court has issued a stay on its release just two days before its scheduled release on June 7, extending the hold until June 14. This unexpected turn of events has impacted the premiere of the film which was expected to be held this week, leaving makers in an uncertain dilemma. The legal obstacle arises from a petition filed by activists from a specific religious community at the Mumbai High Court, opposing the film's release. Producers Birender Bhagat and Ravi S Gupta have raised serious concerns regarding the imposition of the stay, especially given that the film had already obtained a censor certificate. In a recent statement given to NDTV, Mr Bhagat explained their predicame...
