The Bombay High Court has granted an interim order in favor of director Aditya Dhar, preventing filmmaker Santosh Kumar from repeating allegations that Dhar stole his script for the film Dhurandhar: The Revenge. Justice Arif Doctor noted that Dhar established a prima facie case for relief, as Kumar's repeated allegations were deemed defamatory and damaging to Dhar's reputation. The court's order prohibits Kumar from making similar remarks until the next hearing on April 16. Aditya Dhar's films, Dhurandhar and its sequel Dhurandhar: The Revenge, have achieved significant box-office success, with the latter grossing over ₹1600 crore globally, making it the second-highest-grossing Hindi film of all time. Kumar claims that the plot of Dhurandhar: The Revenge was derived from his registered script titled 'D Saheb,' but Dhar has denied any plagiarism, prompting legal action. The two films, originally conceived as a single project, were split into two due to their extensive runtime, totaling over seven hours.
