Karnataka High Court gives green signal for continuation of screening of Hindi movie Maidaan

The High Court of Karnataka on Thursday cleared the way for continuation of screening of Hindi movie Maidaan by staying the temporary injunction granted by a Mysuru civil court against the screening of the movie in any language in any form, including electronic, magnetic and over-the-top (OTT) media platform.

Justice S.R. Krishna Kumar passed the interim order on a petition filed by Boney Kapoor of Bayview Projects Private Limited, Mumbai, who is a co-producer of the movie along with Zee Studios Ltd.

On April 8, the Mysuru court had issued the ex parte temporary injunction against screening of the movie on a suit filed by scriptwriter C.R. Anil Kumar of Mysuru, who had alleged copyright violation by the producers of Maidaan.
