The Delhi High Court on Thursday sought a clarification from the parties on the observations made by the Supreme Court in related proceedings pertaining to release of movie "Udaipur Files" which is based on tailor Kanhaiya Lal murder case. A top court bench of Justices Sudhanshu Dhulia and Joymalya Bagchi on Wednesday refused to urgently list a plea challenging screening of the movie and orally observed: "Let the film be released".

No written order on plea against Udaipur Files release, clarifies SC

The Supreme Court on Thursday clarified it did not pass any written order when it refused to urgently list the plea against the screening of the movie "Udaipur Files: Kanhaiya Lal tailor murder". The clarification from a bench of Justices Sudhanshu Dhulia and Joymalya Bagchi came after senior advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing for the accused Mohammed Javed, said a confusion arose due to the bench's remark, "Let the film be released". After Sibal sought the clarification, the bench said it had indeed made the observation but no written order was passed and the court simply denied the request for urgent listing. Sibal said due to the scheduled release of the film on July 11, the trial of the accused would get prejudiced. He informed the bench about moving the Delhi High Court, which asked him to seek the clarification on the July 9 order. "The petition has not been heard and the oral observation of the court has created a confusion," he submitted. While Justice Bagchi opined the film

Delhi HC tells Udaipur Files producer to screen film for those seeking ban

The Delhi High Court on Wednesday directed the producer of "Udaipur Files", a movie based on tailor Kanhaiya Lal murder case, to arrange its screening for those seeking a ban on it. The court's direction came after the makers claimed objectionable portions have been removed from the film. The bench was hearing petitions claiming that the movie has potential to inflame communal tensions and disrupt public order in the country. A division bench of Chief Justice DK Upadhyaya and Justice Anish Dayal directed the producers to arrange the screening for the counsel representing the petitioners on Wednesday itself and posted the matter for Thursday. The bench passed the directions after the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) told the court that the offending parts of the movie have been removed. The petitions, including one filed by Maulana Arshad Madani, Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind president and principal of Darul Uloom Deoband, have claimed that a trailer of the movie released on June 2
