The producer of the 2013 film Zindagi 50-50, Veeraj Kumar Verma, filed a lawsuit on Tuesday against his director Rajeev Ruia at the Metropolitan Magistrate Court at Andheri. Verma alleged that Ruia caused him losses of Rs 4.75 crore and misappropriated the same. According to the complaint, it was in 2012 that Verma was in the process of producing the film.

Ruia approached Verma, saying he had directed many feature films in the past that became blockbusters and had earned the producers a good profit.
