After almost 6 years, Manoj Kumar has decided to withdraw all the cases against Shah Rukh Khan and Farah Khan
Om Shanti Om (OSO), the superhit SRK starrer of 2007 was embroiled in a controversy since the time of its release.
One
can recollect that Manoj Kumar had filed a case against Shah Rukh Khan
and Farah Khan for allegedly defaming him. Now after almost 6 years,
Manoj Kumar has decided to withdraw all the cases.
The
Padma Shri actor felt was disappointed that SRK and the OSO team had
let him down by not issuing a public apology, and not removing the
objectionable scenes from the film.
Talking
about the withdrawal, Manoj Kumar's lawyer Rizwan Siddiqee said,
"Despite all assurances and promises, Shah Rukh Khan failed to remove
the objectionable scenes from the said film. The scenes were reproduced
in the new prints released internationally. They didn't even show any
remorse. As a result of which, my client who is a world renowned
celebrity has decided to withdraw the case because it has failed in
achieving the objective of bringing some sense of responsibility to Shah
Rukh Khan and Farah Khan."
