A sessions court in Mumbai on Thursday stayed the proceedings against veteran lyricist Javed Akhtar in a complaint filed by Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut.
The order was passed by additional sessions judge (Dindoshi court) A Z Khan, said Akhtar's lawyer Jay Bharadwaj.

The court was hearing Akhtar's revision petition against the summons issued against him by a magistrate on Ranaut's complaint.
