HC rejects Ramesh Sippy’s plea to stay Sholay’s 3D release
The Bombay High Court rejected Bollywood producer Ramesh Sippy’s plea seeking a stay on the release of Sholay’s 3D version made by his nephew Sasha over a copyright dispute.
In a notice of motion on his suit against Sasha and others, Sippy had recently filed an appeal before a division bench against the judgement of Justice Kathawala who had earlier rejected Sippy’s petition on the same issue.
Upholding the single bench’s judgement here today, a division bench of Justices S F Vajifdar and G S Patel refused to stay the production and release of the movie’s 3D version.
