Ekta’s lawyer Mukul Rohatgi has now filed a petition in the Supreme court. On challenging the arrest warrant against Kapoor, the Apex court reportedly commented on the series saying that it was ‘polluting the minds of the youngsters in India’. 

Ekta’s lawyer reasoned that the series was subscription based and each one must have freedom of choice in the country. To this the court responded, “Everytime you travel to this court. We don't appreciate this. We will put a cost on you for filing such a petition. Mr Rohatgi, please convey this to your client.”

The bench then added, “Just because you can afford and hire the services of good lawyers this court is not for those who have voices. This court works for those who don't have voices. If these people who have all kinds of facilities, if they cannot get justice then think of the situation of this common man. We have seen the order and we have our reservations.”

The matter is now kept pending in the top court.
