What is the case?
The matter essentially involves a producer’s complaint against actor Kunal Khemu and his father Ravi Khemu regarding unlawful enrichment on agreed arrangements for making a film. The producer has claimed in the complaint that money paid in good faith for a film project, which was not worked upon, nor did the defendants refund it. The details of such transactions and agreements form the basis of these legal filings in court, pending for several years.
Court’s notice and Police response

It was in continuation of the procedure that needs to be followed to ensure the matter is duly investigated by the authorities and the grievance of the producer is noted in proper detail. Such notices often come before further legal evaluations or possible charges, depending on police reporting and judicial reviews.
