Saif Ali Khan faces setback as his ancestral Bhopal properties declared 'Enemy Property', High Court rejects plea
Saif Ali Khan has found himself back in legal crosshairs as the Madhya Pradesh High Court recently rejected his long-pending plea challenging the government's decision to label his family's ancestral properties in Bhopal as "enemy property." The controversy dates back to a 2014 notice from the Custodian of Enemy Property Department, which brought the Pataudi family estates under the purview of the Enemy Property Act, effectively deeming them assets of a foreign national and subject to government control.
In the recent turn of events, the Madhya Pradesh Hifh Court has overturned a 25-year-old ruling by a local trial court and ordered a complete retrial of the case. The court's latest directive mandates that the matter be re-examined from the beginning, with instructions to the trial court to conclude proceedings within one year.

Pawan Kalyan's 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' faces controversy over historical representation days before its release
Picture Credit: X With just weeks to go before its grand release, Pawan Kalyan 's much-awaited historical action drama 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu', directed by AM Jyothi Krisna, seems to be facing a backlash from several community groups in Telangana who allege that the film disrespects a revered historical figure. As per a report by 123Telugu, multiple Backward Classes (BC) associations and Mudhiraj community groups have raised objections over the portrayal of the film's lead character, Veera Mallu, played by Pawan Kalyan. These groups claim that the character seems to be inspired by Panduga Sayanna, a celebrated folk hero known for fighting against oppression and supporting the cause of the poor and marginalised. However, the film reportedly makes no reference to Sayanna or acknowledges this connection, which has sparked anger among community leaders. Many within the Bahujan and BC communities argue that omitting Sayanna's name or legacy from a character that appears to be based on his life amounts to erasing an important chapter of their cultural history. Community leaders have demanded clarity from the makers of 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu,' calling on them to either confirm or deny the connection and, if necessary, make changes to the film's narrative. The report also suggests that some groups are threatening to protest or even block the release of the film if their concerns are not addressed in time. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Sharp Design, Smoother Drives.
