Metropolitan Magistrate Mayuri Singh took cognisance of the complaint and directed police officials of Nand Nagri in North East Delhi area to place their reply on November 27.
"Status report be called from the police station concerned for November 27," the court said.
Complainant Rajender Singh Raja, national general secretary of a social organisation Shivsena Hindustan, filed a complaint against the film's actors Paresh Rawal, Mithun Chakraborty, its director Umesh Shukla and the Central Board of Film Certification.
He alleged that the film has several dialogues and scenes which are objectionable and hurt the sentiments of Hindus.
The dialogues have been spoken against the gods and goddesses of Hindu religion, the petition said.
"This act is illegal and irresponsible and has hurt the feelings of Hindus and has also insulted the gods and goddesses of Hindus," the complaint said, adding the film shows Rawal, playing the role of an atheist, filing a case against god in a court.

Seeking prosecution against Rawal, Chakraborty, Shukla and the CBFC, he claimed that he had approached the Delhi Police commissioner but no action was taken.
