Kumar, in his complaint in 2020, had alleged that series XXX (Season-2) featured several objectionable scenes related to a soldier's wife. "The series was aired on ALTBalaji, an OTT platform owned by Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Telefilms Ltd. Shobha Kapoor is also associated with Balaji Telefilms," said Hrishikesh Pathak, advocate of Kumar. Ekta Kapoor Reveals She Has Her Plate Full With 23 Projects Lined Up for 2022!

"The court had issued summons to them (Kapoors) and asked them to appear before it in connection with the matter. They (Kapoors), however, informed the court that certain scenes in the series were removed after the objection. But they did not appear before the court following which the warrant was issued against them," Pathak added.
