The controversy around ‘Kala Hiran’ continues to grow after reports suggested that Salman Khan’s legal team issued a notice to the makers, alleging similarities with the actor’s blackbuck poaching case. Producer Amit Jani had earlier accused the actor of resorting to intimidation tactics, while director Bharat S. Shrinate has now responded, saying his experience with ‘Udaipur Files’ helped him prepare for legal challenges and criticism.
Bharat S. Shrinate says he is used to legal pressure and criticism
Bharat has responded to reports of Salman’s legal notice. In an interview with NDTV, the director said he has become accustomed to handling legal pressures and public criticism over time. He also shared that he was currently occupied with his editor and team. “Udaipur Files has taught me how to fight,” he said, adding that legal notices no longer make him “feel down anymore.” He explained that people act according to their own sense of right and wrong. “It’s a legal notice, and it will be answered,” he remarked.
‘Kala Hiran’ row deepens over alleged references to blackbuck case
The row surrounding ‘Kala Hiran’ has deepened after reports claimed that Khan’s legal team served a notice to the makers over alleged references to his blackbuck poaching case. It is further stated that the notice called for stopping the film’s release and taking down its promotional material from social media.
Amit Jani alleges pressure tactics, calls out intimidation claims
Reacting to the reports, producer Amit Jani took to Facebook and shared images of the alleged notice, accusing the actor of attempting to suppress voices through pressure tactics. “The purpose of the notices is to intimidate people so that they succumb to his glamour,” he wrote, adding, “It’s his habit to intimidate. It’s my nature to not be intimidated.” Meanwhile, Salman and his legal team are yet to release any official response on the issue.
‘Kala Hiran’ said to be based on 1998 blackbuck poaching controversy
‘Kala Hiran’ is an upcoming film reportedly based on the 1998 blackbuck poaching controversy involving Salman and his ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’ co-stars. The project drew attention after its first-look poster showed a character resembling the actor, including a bracelet similar to Salman’s signature style. It is said to explore the alleged hunting incident, the prolonged legal proceedings, Salman’s arrest, and the extensive media coverage that followed. The film is also expected to touch upon the Lawrence Bishnoi connection and feature courtroom drama elements.
