Salman Khan’s Legal Team Sends Notice to Kala Hiran Makers, Producer Reacts

The actor alleges the film uses his name and case details without consent, while the producers say it portrays the Bishnoi community’s fight for justice.

  • Bollywood actor Salman Khan has initiated legal action against the makers of 'Kala Hiran', demanding they remove all promotional materials and alleging a gross violation of personality rights.
  • The 1998 blackbuck poaching incident occurred near Jodhpur during the filming of 'Hum Saath Saath Hain', triggering a long-standing case filed by The Bishnoi community against Khan.
  • Producer Amit Jani defended the project on Facebook, writing that Khan's intent is to "intimidate people", while stating the film portrays The Bishnoi community's battle for justice against powerful figures.
  • Despite the legal notice, the filmmakers released the first-look poster featuring a man with a gun and bracelet associated with Khan, with the teaser scheduled for June 20.
  • This conflict emerges amid heightened security concerns following a 2024 shooting outside Khan's Mumbai residence attributed to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, intensifying tensions around the case.
