dispute
In 2019, Pathak was criticized for plagiarizing some scenes from the film “Bala” in the film “Ujda Chaman”. He received a legal notice from the team of the film “Bala” and later said in an interview that he released the trailer of the film “Ujja Chaman” before the film “Bala”. He claimed that if the trailer had been released earlier, the changes would have been made in the film “Bala” and not in his film “Ujda Chaman”. Pathak then sent a notice to Maddock Films when the film was announced for release. In an interview, he spoke about this and said:
We are in discussions with my team now. When we purchased the rights in early 2019, we sent them a notice because their announcement was made around the same time. I gave them all the files because their movies sounded so similar. They said there was no resemblance other than the character being bald, and I took their word for it. But that doesn’t appear to be the case now. The dialogues, the situations, everything looks similar, even people are aware of it. ”
