Courtroom drama over OTT release
Cine1 Studios Private Limited, which co-produced the movie, sued another producer T-series over non-payment compliance with contractual obligations.
Cine1 asked the court to stop the release of Animal on OTT on January 26, 2024, until it paid its dues and rendered a collection of the movie.
In response to that, T-Series lawyer advocate Amit Sibal stated that Cine1 had renounced its rights for 2.2 crore. He also mentioned that the company concealed the document from the court and thus was not entitled to relief.
