The Indian Express reported that the case was lodged in pursuance of an order passed by Sub Divisional Judicial Magistrate on September 12 against Khan and others associated with the forthcoming project.

The court passed the order following a complaint by advocate Sudhir Kumar Ojha who claimed that the title of the film made fun of the holy festival of Navaratri. He had also alleged that the promos of the movie suggested that it contained vulgarity and could hurt sentiments.

A few days ago, the Tubelight actor announced the film's change of title via Twitter. "This is not a spelling mistake," he wrote.
