This directive was implemented after Singh allegedly failed to respond to three requests regarding his involvement in the film 'Don 3'.

He emphasized the need for collaboration among film associations to resolve disputes amicably. In response to the FWICE's actions, Aggarwal has filed a petition in the Bombay Civil Court against both FWICE and IMPPA.
