In response to the Federation of Western India Cine Employees' (FWICE) directive against actor Ranveer Singh, veteran producer TP Aggarwal has filed a petition in the Bombay Civil Court located in Dindoshi. The FWICE's non-cooperation directive arose after Singh's abrupt exit from the film Don 3, which left the production in a difficult position. Aggarwal, who has held leadership roles in various film organizations, argues that no entity has the legal authority to impose a ban on an individual, as such actions can severely impact livelihoods and creative freedom. The court has issued notices to both FWICE and the Indian Motion Picture Producers' Association (IMPPA). In the wake of the controversy, CINTAA has publicly supported Singh, with its vice-president affirming their readiness to assist him. Meanwhile, FWICE's chief advisor, Ashoke Pandit, clarified that their directive is not a ban but a form of non-cooperation, which has sparked further discussions about the implications of such actions in the film industry. Excel Entertainment, the film's production company, is also pursuing ₹45 crore (approximately $5.4 million USD) in damages from Singh for costs incurred during pre-production.
