A Court in Bihar's Begusarai issued an arrest warrant against producer Ekta Kapoor & her mother Sobha Kapoor.
The Bihar court released the warrant against the duo on the charges of insulting Indian soldiers in their web series ‘XXX’ Season-2.
The warrant also reports that Ekta's show hurt the sentiments of family members of soldiers.
Judge Vikas Kumar issued the warrant on the basis of a complaint lodged by Shambhu Kumar, an ex-serviceman & a resident of Begusarai.
Kumar registered a complaint against Ekta Kapoor & Shobha Kapoor in 2020.
He alleged that web series 'XXX' (Season-2) featured several objectionable scenes related to a soldier's wife.
The series was aired on ALTBalaji, an OTT platform owned by Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms Ltd.
Hrishikesh Pathak, advocate of Kumar said, "The court had issued summons to them (Kapoors) and asked them to appear before it in connection with the matter."
"They (Kapoors), however, informed the court that certain scenes in the series were removed after the objection," Pathak further said.
"But the duo did not appear before the court following which the warrant was issued against them," Pathak added.
