The Madras High Court on Tuesday has ordered an interim stay on the release of Vishal‘s upcoming film ‘Chakra‘ due to alleged copyright violations.
The High Court has asked for a report from Vishal and director MS Anandan, after producer Ravi of Tritan Artists alleged that he owns the copyright of the movie.
Producer Ravi moved the HC claiming that the script of the film was first narrated to him and the director had also signed a contract with him.
On Tuesday, the petitioner’s counsel urged Justice Karthikeyan to stall the release. The bench has ordered an interim stay on the release of Chakra and sought the response of Vishal, who has produced the film, and the director of the movie. The case has been adjourned to Monday. The film was supposed to release on February 19.
