Even as Jugjugg Jeeyo opens in cinemas today, we hear its legal wrangle is not yet over. Raj Mehta’s directorial venture got into a controversy when Vishal Singh, executive creative producer of Sanjay Gupta’s Jazbaa (2015), claimed that the Karan Johar production is based on his story, Bunny Rani. Following a petition filed by Vishal, the Ranchi Commercial Court heard the case last week and asked for a screening on June 21. While the screening took place as directed, we hear the court has yet to decide on the matter. Meanwhile, it has allowed the release of the Varun Dhawan and Kiara Advani starrer as Viacom18 Motion Pictures is invested in it as a co-producer and studio partner. The next hearing has been scheduled for July 11. Until then, the matter remains subjudice and the court has apparently forbidden the plaintiff and the defendants from sharing any information about the courtroom proceedings outside.
