Vashu Bhagnani accuses Netflix

According to the Economic Times report, Vashu claimed that the OTT platform ‘cheated and conspired against the rights’ of his three recent films – Hero No 1, Mission Raniganj and Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. He filed a complaint against Los Gatos Production Services India, through which Netflix reports its content investments in India, Zoo Digital India and against executives of both companies. The report also claimed that the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) has summoned the production services firm.

Netflix denies claim

According to the same publication, Netflix released a statement to the press claiming that Pooja Entertainment owes them money. The statement reportedly reads, “These claims are completely unfounded. Indeed, it’s Pooja Entertainment that owes Netflix money. We have a strong track record of partnership with the Indian creative community and are working with the authorities to resolve this dispute.” They also quoted a source claiming that a civil dispute was registered by Netflix against the production house for non-payment.
