For the unversed, Santosh Kumar RS accused Dhurandhar makers, including writer-director Aditya Dhar, of copying the script. The latter flagged Santosh's comments as defamatory.

Justice Arif S Doctor, while hearing the defamation suit filed by Dhar against Kumar on Wednesday, passed the order, noting that while Kumar had been served notice of the case, none appeared for him. The Court then proceeded to grant Dhar limited interim relief, noting that he had made out a prima facie case for the grant of such relief.
