Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan`s son Junaid Khan is all set to make his acting debut with his first film set to be released today. However, ahead of its OTT release on Netflix, the film named `Maharaj` has landed in a legal soup. Hours before its Netflix release, reports have surfaced that the Gujarat High Court has called for a stay on the film`s release following a plea by a Hind group who claimed that the movie could potentially incite violence. `Maharaj` also stars Jaideep Ahlawat and is directed by Siddharth P Malhotra.
According to a report in India Today, the stay order was issued on a petition filed on behalf of devotees of Lord Krishna and followers of Vallabhacharya, which is the Pushtimarg sect.” As per the petition, the firm that narrates the story of the Maharaj Libel Case of 1862 can potentially incite violence against the followers of the sect and cause chaos in public order.
