As per the report by Deccan Chronicle, the petition described as,”The dialogue is intended to convey that the brand BATA is adorned only by lower strata of society and one should feel humiliated if one wears BATA footwear, in fact the expression and reaction to such a dialogue by Akshay Kumar in the trailer shows that even the person to whom such a statement is hurled took the same extremely negatively and slapped Annu Kapoor in Open Court as if he has been severely abused in the dialogue or he has been hurled with deliberate effort to tarnish the brand image of Bata.”
The legal notice has been sent to the makers Fox Star Studios, executive producer Naren Kumar, directors Deepak Jacob, Amit Shah and Subhash Kapoor. They want that the makers either settle the matters by saying sorry about it and also goes on to publish that news in the leading newspapers.
If you will remember, this same kind of incident has happened during the time of Dangal. As one of the song has the word Zandu Balm in a derogatory way. The maker had settled the matter as Malaika turns as the brand ambassador of the same product.
Directed by Subhash Kapoor, the film also stars Huma Qureshi, Saurabh Shukla and Annu Kapoor in titular roles. The film is all set to hit the theaters on February 10, 2017.
