According to India Today, Abhishek Kapoor has claimed that he was working with Pubali Chaudhuri on Rock On!! 2's script till they had a disagreement with Excel Entertainment after which she disappeared and started ignoring his calls and messages.
Later on he found out that Chaudhuri had ditched him and registered the script without his knowledge. He went to the production house and tried to resolve the matter but they used his contract against him.
He also claimed that clauses in the Excel contract are contradictory to the Copyright Act and he would much rather leave the court to deal with the matter at hand.

The film, slated to go on floors in August, stars Farah Akhtar, Arjun Rampal, Shraddha Kapoor and a rumoured Alia Bhatt.
