Tainted Bangalore-based self styled god-man Swami Nityananda’s lawyer Mr Dhananjaya today warned Tollywood producers against making movies to defame his client.
Addressing a media conference in Hyderabad this morning, the lawyer said that a Bangalore court had withdrawn permission to the screening of a Kannada movie called ‘Satyananda’ for having defamatory scenes against the Swami.
“If any producer or director makes such a movie defaming the Swami, the action would be treated as the contempt of court and such persons would be liable for punishment. So, I warn the producers and directors here not produce and screen such movies,” he said. “We will take legal action against such people.”
He said he came to know that the same Kannada movie producer has been making a Telugu movie with the name Swami Satyananada in Telugu and asked him not to go ahead with the production of the same.
“Allegations against the Swami are not yet proved in any court of law and the making of movies based on his story would be liable for punishment for contempt of court,” said Mr Dhananjaya.
