The parents of two victims of the 2016 Holey Artisan attack filed a petition against Hansal Mehta’s film Faraaz, seeking a preview to ensure their daughters weren’t portrayed negatively, arguing it would violate privacy rights. The Delhi High Court initially issued summons but later disposed of the case after the plaintiffs withdrew their suit. The matter concluded without judicial intervention on the film’s content. The case highlighted tensions between artistic expression and victims’ families’ rights. No further orders were passed.
