It looks like Sanjay Leela Bhansali is emerging as controversy’s favourite child, after Salman Khan. The filmmaker’s Friday release Gangubai Kathiawadi, starring Alia Bhatt in the titular role, continues to see legal hurdles. Even though the Bombay High Court on Wednesday dismissed a petition by a Kamathipura resident and a PIL by MLA Amin Patel seeking removal of the word ‘Kamathipura’ from the film, the Supreme Court has asked the makers if the title can be changed. The apex court made the suggestion keeping in mind the  number of cases pending in courts seeking a halt in the film’s release this Friday. SLB’s lawyer reportedly said that he will check with the filmmaker before the hearing continues today. If he agrees to the suggestion, it will mark  the third time that he has changed his film’s title. Previously, the filmmaker had renamed Ram-Leela as Goliyon Ki Raasleela: Ram-leela and Padmavati as Padmaavat.
