An Indian court on Sunday issued arrest warrants against Ram- Leela director-producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali, actors Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra, Ranveer Singh in connection with a case alleging that few scenes in the movie hurt the religious sentiments of the Hindus, reports NDTV.
Warrants were also issued against another producer Kishore Lulla, as well as the musicians and lyricists of the movie.
Issuing the arrest warrants, chief judicial magistrate (CJM) SP Singh directed Mumbai Police Commissioner to arrest the persons concerned and produce them at his court on 4 June.
These warrants were issued based on a complaint case under various sections of the IPC filed by advocate Sudhir Kumar Ojha in November previous year which alleged that few scenes in the movie hurt the religious sentiments of the Hindus, says a NDTV report.
The Madhya Pradesh High Court had stopped the release of the movie till 22 November 2013 but it was released here on 12 November itself.
The CJM took cognisance of the case on 14 February this year and summoned the actors and the director, who did not turn up following which on Sunday the warrants were issued.
