Once it’s there, you can spin a script or screenplay around it, but copying the original idea without permission is a serious issue.” “I have been in this industry for 20 years, and I hope Raaj investigates his team. I am certain we have plenty of common people.” Sanjay also mentioned about taking legal action and said, “I will consider moving to the High Court if necessary, but I don’t want to cause harm to anyone. , but filmmaking involves hard work from many.” Sanjay has also addressed his interactions with the Screenwriters Association regarding the whole situation.

Despite having a massive membership, their work culture is beyond deplorable in this digital age.” The dispute centers around a work registered by Gulbanu Khan in 2015, titled ‘Sex Hai Toh Life Hai…?’ Which Sanjay has claimed that the dream girl fame director and his team took the main concept from this original piece.
