Salman Khan has taken legal action against the film 'Kala Hiran,' which aims to portray the events surrounding his controversial blackbuck hunting case from 1998. The notice, issued through DSK Legal, argues that the film could damage Khan's reputation and disrupt ongoing judicial proceedings related to the case, which is currently being reviewed by the Rajasthan High Court. The incident in question occurred while Khan and other actors were filming 'Hum Saath Saath Hain' in Jodhpur, where he was accused of killing two blackbucks, leading to his conviction in 2018. At that time, he was sentenced to five years in prison and fined ₹10,000. The legal notice is dated April 24, 2026, and highlights concerns over the potential impact of the film on Khan's right to a fair trial. Khan has consistently denied shooting the blackbuck, stating in a past interview that he was not the one responsible for the act. The film's announcement has sparked significant attention on social media, raising questions about the ethical implications of depicting real-life legal cases in cinema.
