Salman Khan has reportedly sent a legal notice to the makers of Kala Hiran, a film allegedly inspired by the 1998 blackbuck poaching case, alleging that this is a “gross violation of personality rights.” The movie has been directed by Bharata Srinate and produced by Amit Jani. As per India Today, the legal notice seeks an immediate removal of posters and other promotional materials related to the film. Previously, the makers had released a poster of the film where a man can be seen posing with a gun. He is seen wearing a bracelet that is often associated with Salman. The poster declared the movie’s teaser would release on June 20. The makers have claimed that the film is inspired by real-life legal battles. Amit Jani took to social media and claimed that Salman Khan had sent him a legal notice with regard to Kala Hiran. “Salman Khan is intimidating people associated with Kala Hiran with a legal notice. The motive of this notice is that people get scared in the face of his stardom and glamour.” He then attached a screenshot of the alleged legal notice. SCREEN reached out to Salman Khan and his team.

Jitni umar likhi hai, utni likhi hai. Bas yahi hai. Kabhi kabhi itne logon ko saath mein leke chalna padta hai, bas wohi problem ho jaati hai. (God, Allah, everything depends on Him.
