Today, On 28th February, Actor Kangana Ranaut and lyricist Javed Akhtar reached a settlement in the long-standing defamation case. As part of the resolution, Ranaut apologized to Akhtar for any inconvenience caused. The case stemmed from her remarks linking Akhtar to a larger conspiracy, which he denied. This settlement brings an end to their legal dispute, avoiding further courtroom proceedings.
A Mumbai court has given Kangana Ranaut one final chance to appear before it considers issuing a non-bailable warrant in the defamation case brought by Javed Akhtar. Akhtar’s lawyer requested the warrant due to Ranaut’s consistent absences from nearly 40 scheduled court dates. She has attributed her non-appearance to parliamentary commitments. This legal dispute dates back to 2020, and mediation efforts are still ongoing.
