The news of Drishyam 2 being made by producer Kumar Mangat is already in the news. And now we hear that the film has run into legal problems. Viacom 18
Motion Pictures, who co-produced the first part starring Ajay Devgn and Tabu in main roles have legally objected against Kumar Mangat's move as they claim that the film's rights belong to them too.
'Drishyam 2' starred Malayalam superstar Mohanlal. The first part in Hindi was released in 2015, directed by late filmmaker Nishikant Kamat and produced by Viacom 18 Motion Pictures, Panorama Studios and Kumar Mangat.
A source says that Viacom 18 Motion Pictures have told Mangat that they cannot be dissociated from this project. “They have also told him that he cannot make 'Drishyam 2' on his own or with someone else. The very fact that Mangat yet went ahead to set up the stage for it has irked them and hence, they've filed a legal complaint against him. The first hearing of the case in question is going to be held, very soon," added the source while talking to a leading daily.
