The Competition Commission has rejected the complaint from actor Ajay Devgn against Yash Raj Films for alleged abuse of dominant position in the Hindi film industry, saying that the plea does not have any merit. Shahrukh Khan also feels that if the makers of Ajay Devgn starrer Son of Sardar had an issue with number of theatres then they could have released the film a week ago.
Shahrukh said, “My logic is if you are worried that you have less number of theatres then you should have booked it earlier. Because your business house has not done it and the other has done it why are you holding that against us, why is there an issue? If you have an option then you can come like this Friday, it is completely for you to choose. Either do it one week before or after but if you have decided to do it together then release it.
Shahrukh has already provided his point of view that he finds the ongoing controversy “silly and strange” and insists that it is a free market and not “monopolistic”.
