Didda Copyright Row- “Historical Work And Historical Facts Can Never Be Copyrighted: Kangana Raut Moves Bombay HC To Quash FIR

Actor Kangana Ranaut and her brother have filed a petition in the Bombay High Court to quash the FIR against them in the Didda copyright row on author Ashish Kaul’s private complaint. Kaul is a former Zee Network executive and the author of the book Didda: The Warrior Queen of Kashmir. In the petition filed under Article 226, 227 of the Constitution and 482 of the CrPC, Ranaut alleged she and the three others have been maliciously dragged in criminal proceedings by Kaul based on conjectures as no crime has been committed. She has further accused Kaul of “personal vengeance” and promoting his book by creating a controversy around it.
