The potential financer and distributor Mr. Uttam Maheshwari, who had come on board, sent my docket to Kangana. It had my script, characterisation, possible cast everything.""For the last three years, all I have done is dream about this film and worked towards it. Now I am in major loss because I was already in talks with production houses," Kaul added.He revealed that he had sent a mail to Kangana informing her of the copyright violation but was met with a holding response that they would reply to his mail.When contacted, Kangana Ranaut's advocate Rizwan Siddiquee said: "I shall obtain a copy of the entire proceedings from the court and then give a detailed statement.
