The Karnataka High Court has issued notice in a case involving Ranveer Singh who participated in the 56th International Film Festival of India (IFFI), organised by the Government of Goa.
The matter relates to an incident during the event, where the Dhurandhar actor mimicked the role played by Rishab Shetty in Kantara Chapter 1. During this, he allegedly referred to a deity as a female ghost, which led to the present proceedings.
The court, while taking up the matter, directed that objections be filed by the next date of hearing. It also said that the respondent state shall not take any coercive steps against the petitioner until the case is heard on Monday, March 2.
With notice now issued and interim protection granted, the matter is set to be heard next week.
