New Delhi:
The Bombay Excessive Courtroom on Saturday granted an ad-interim injunction restraining Maddock Movies from releasing Bhool Chuk Maaf on OTT platforms earlier than finishing its agreed-upon 8-week theatrical run with PVR Inox.
The order was handed after PVR Inox filed a petition in opposition to Maddock Movies’ announcement to skip the theatrical launch and premiere the movie immediately on Amazon Prime Video on Might 16.
The announcement got here simply in the future earlier than the movie was initially scheduled to hit cinemas on Might 9.
“In gentle of current occasions and the heightened safety drills throughout the nation, we at Maddock Movies and Amazon MGM Studios have determined to carry our household entertainer, Bhool Chuk Maaf, on to your houses on Might 16–only on Prime Video, worldwide,” the manufacturing home stated in an announcement shared on social media.
PVR Inox, in its courtroom plea, argued that the last-minute change was a breach of the contract signed between the events on Might 6, 2025.
The settlement specified that the movie will need to have an 8-week window earlier than it may be launched on-line.
Bhool Chuk Maaf is directed and written by Karan Sharma and stars Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi, marking their first on-screen collaboration.
The following listening to within the case is scheduled for June 16.
