Popular social media content creator Ankita Sahigal recently took to her Instagram stories, and expressed her state of mind when she saw a Punjabi movie, Ni Main Saas Kuttni 2, which was released last year in June. Tagging the producer, Mohit Banwait, Ankita lashed out at her emotions. In the first IG story, she shared a scene from the film, which was copied from her reel. Atop it, she wrote:
“What the hell? Copied my reel in a movie? Like really?”
Followed by another IG story, wherein she was heard saying that she doesn’t know the writer of the movie, but he is definitely a thief. She tagged the director and stated that they should give her the due credit, as it has not been done. She said:
“I mean I really don’t know iska writer kon chorr, but director ke baare mein mai ne padha and I am going to tag him. And please guys tell him to give me the due credit and whatever as this is not done, ap as it is meri reel toh nai daal sakte na. Bhai kuch toh creative karo life mein. What the hell.”
In another story, she penned a note calling out the producer, who is also a writer, for copying her entire reel for their film, without her permission, credits or money. She further revealed the name of the film. She also revealed that the director had texted her in 2023, but never took permission to copy her work.
Sharing his message screenshot, Ankita stated that there was a difference between making a reel on someone’s audio and copying someone’s intellectual property. She even asked for lawyers to ping her as she would be taking the matter to the court of justice. She stated that making mistakes is one thing but being shameless is another.
