Kangana challenges defamation proceedings initiated by Javed Akhtar

We know a Mumbai court issued a bailable warrant against the Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut after she failed to show up before the court in a defamation case filed by poet-lyricist Javed Akhtar.

Now, the actress has approached Dindoshi Sessions Court in Mumbai to challenge the proceedings before the Metropolitan Magistrate Court at Andheri.

As per reports, the Queen actress has filed a criminal revision application, challenging the order passed by the Magistrate, under which she was summoned to court. She alleges that the court summoned her without obeying the Criminal Procedure Code. She has also challenged for cancelling the bailable warrant issued by the Magistrate.

For people unversed, Akhtar had lodged a complaint against the actress for her derogatory statements made against him in an interview, which was aired by Republic TV.
