For the unversed, the legal battle between the Bollywood celebrities began back in 2020, with Ranaut’s interview with a news channel, following the death of fellow actor Sushant Singh Rajput by suicide.

She claimed in the interview that Akhtar had asked her to apologize to co-star and rumored ex-boyfriend Hrithik Roshan, who had filed a lawsuit against Ranaut, seeking an apology from his ‘Krrish 3’ co-star, after their public spat over a statement on their alleged relationship.
