To this Bhansali Productions lawyer Siddhartha Dave, informed the top court today that he will get a confined decision on this after discussing this matter with his client. The Supreme Court will continue hearing the matter tomorrow.
Earlier, the OG Gangubai’s family, her adopted son Babu Raoji Shah and her granddaughter Bharti were not really happy with the film. Talking about Gangubai Kathiawadi, Babu Raoji Shah said, “My mother has been turned into a prostitute. People are now saying inexplicable things about my mother.”
Gangubai’s granddaughter Bharti also thrashed at the makers and asserted that they have slandered the family out of the desire for money. She said, “The makers have defamed my family out of greed for money. It cannot be accepted. You did not ask for the family’s consent before going ahead with the project. You did not come to us while writing the book, nor did you seek our permission before making the film. My grandmother has worked for the upliftment of the sex workers there throughout her life. What have these people turned my grandmother into?”
Gangubai’s family lawyer Narendra had also claimed that the family has been hiding and changing homes ever since their identity has come onboard. Narendra revealed that the family’s “mental state is not good”, and that “no one is able to live in peace”.
