Excitement for Shahid Kapoor's upcoming film 'O'Romeo' has been growing steadily. Fans got their first look at the movie through a recently released teaser. This short preview offered a glimpse into the film's dramatic and intense world.
Trailer Launch Event Gets Cancelled
However, recent developments have disrupted the film's promotional schedule. The production team has decided to cancel the planned trailer launch event. This decision comes in response to an ongoing legal dispute.
Security Concerns Prompt Cancellation
According to reports, security concerns played a major role in this cancellation. The filmmaking team made this move following allegations raised by Sanober Shaikh. She is the daughter of Hussain Ustara.
Sanober Shaikh has reportedly sent a legal notice to the film's producers. She claims her father has been inaccurately depicted in 'O'Romeo'. The notice questions the portrayal shown in the film.
Financial Compensation Demanded
The legal notice includes a demand for financial compensation. Sanober Shaikh has allegedly asked for Rs 2 crore from the makers. She believes the portrayal damages her family's reputation.
The notice was addressed to producer Sajid Nadiadwala of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment. Director Vishal Bhardwaj also received the notice. It states that the film may present Hussain Ustara in an unfavorable light.
Request to Halt Film Release
The complainant has reportedly requested the makers to address her objections. She wants them to either halt or delay the film's release. This matter has added controversy to the film's promotional activities.
As of now, there has been no official confirmation from the production team. They have not commented publicly about the cancellation of the trailer launch.
