Raja Shivaji not derogatory to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj: Bombay HC dismisses plea against film’s title; ‘PIL is motivated’

Days before its theatrical release, Raja Shivaji has cleared a legal hurdle. The Bombay High Court on Thursday dismissed a public interest litigation (PIL) that sought to stall the film over the omission of the honorific “Chhatrapati” from its title. With the court refusing to halt the film, Raja Shivaji is set to release as scheduled.
