While Salman's legal tussles continue, his brother Sohail too has landed himself in a soup. According to a report in Mid-day, the actor-producer is finding himself in the middle of a legal battle as his manager had delayed the payment of his staff's salaries. Apparently, one of the five disgruntled employees has sought redressal by moving the Labour court. A source has been quoted in the report as saying that the five employees are awaiting their dues of nearly Rs 1 lakh from Sohail's office for over four months now. Apparently, tired with the wait, one of the five employees decided to file a petition with the Labour court. He has also sent two notices to the actor's manager which haven't been responded to. The actor has however rubbished the allegations.

Let's take stock of other celebs who were embroiled in legal tussles, their popularity notwithstanding.

According to a report in Mumbai Mirror, Ayesha has claimed that Sahil's wife Nigar divorced him because he was gay and that she walked in on him having sex with a male staff member.

The first poster of Aamir Khan's upcoming film, PK, might have garnered him the necessary attention, but it has also landed him in trouble, jeopardizing chances of the film's release. The plaintiff Hemant Patil has claimed that the film's poster, that features a buck naked Aamir Khan posing with a transistor that covers his modesty, is obscene and vulgar. According to a PTI report, a civil court in Mumbai said that it would frame issues in a suit filed against Bollywood actor Aamir Khan, seeking a ban on the release of his upcoming film PK on the ground of obscenity. The court has said it would frame issues on December 17 as to whether it has the jurisdiction to entertain this suit. It asked the plaintiff's lawyer, advocate R N Kachave, to argue on whether a case of obscenity or vulgarity was made out.

Salman Khan has often played the tough cop in his reel life. The actor was seen as a policeman in films like Garv, Wanted, Dabangg and Dabangg 2. In his real life, however, the actor has been through his share of legal troubles. On September 28, 2002, the superstar was arrested for rash and negligent driving which allegedly killed one person and injured four others. The actor is under trial for this alleged act. According to a report in Mumbai Mirror, the prosecution in the 2002 hit-and-run case told the sessions court that Salman's lawyer was delaying the trial to which the judge agreed saying that the case had already been going on for 13 years and should end by December. As per a report in Mumbai Mirror, the actor was present in the court on December 3, as the judge heard depositions in the case which is now adjourned to December 15. The report stated that as per the chemical analysis, Salman's blood alcohol level was found to be double the legal limit. While, as per the Motor Vehicle Act, permissible limit for presence of alcohol in human blood sample is 30mg per 100ml of blood, Salman's sample showed presence of 62mg of alcohol. After a series of questioning and cross-questioning, the case was adjourned. The actor has been exempted from appearing in the court on the next hearing date. Besides the hit-and-run case, the actor has also been slapped with few other charges. On February 17, 2006, Salman was sentenced to one year in prison for hunting a Chinkara. On April 10, 2006, the actor was handed a five-year jail term and remanded to custody in Jodhpur jail until April 13, 2006, when he was granted bail.

Shreyas Talpade has been summoned to the court for an alleged dispute relating to payment and credits for Shreyas' production, Poshter Boyz. According to a report in Mumbai Mirror, Shreyas Talpade was seen attending the 33rd Magistrate Court at Ballard Pier, along with wife Deepti on Tuesday. The dispute is between Jash Shah of Kaichi Productions and the Talpades, who are both directors of their company, Affluence Movies. Shah in his complaint, states that Talpade had availed of his company's VFX services for Poshter Boyz but later defaulted on the payment and didn't give them credit. Talpade, however, denies this vehemently and says that Shah is using arm twisting techniques to defame him, "The name of the company was excluded from the film's credits because they did a shoddy job. As producer, it's my prerogative to decide whose name goes in the credits," he told Mumbai Mirror. The complaint recorded states that initially the amount agreed between the parties was Rs 7 lakh, which was later brought down to Rs 5.5 lakh. "After the release of the movie on August 1, 2014, the directors of the company failed to pay the rest of the consideration amount and also failed to clear the service tax amount in the invoice," the complaint states. Talpade countered this by saying, "Firstly, the cheque bounced not because of insufficiency of funds, but because of a technical glitch in the date line. As soon as they alerted me about this, I issued another cheque which was promptly cleared." But Shah alleges that a payment of Rs 50,000 bounced, saying that it left him with no option but to file a case against Talpade.

Veena Malik has always been in the news for all the wrong reasons but the actress seemed to have mellowed down post her marriage. The actress and her husband were recently blessed with a baby boy. However, seems that the actress is in trouble once again. According to a PTI report, the owner of Pakistan's biggest media group, Geo TV along with actor Veena Malik and her husband was sentenced to 26 years in prison by an anti-terrorism court for allegedly airing a blasphemous programme. Mir Shakil-ur-Rahman, owner of Geo and Jang group, was accused of allowing the airing of a blasphemous programme by Geo television in May, which played a religious song while staging a mock marriage of Malik with Bashir. The report further states that Judge Shahbaz Khan also sentenced both Malik and Bashir along with TV host Shaista Wahidi for 26 years each. The ATC also imposed a 1.3 million Pakistani rupees fine on the convicts and ordered that their properties should be sold to raise the fine, if they failed to pay it. The judge said in his judgment that all four accused committed profanity.
The report suggests that the court in its 40-page verdict also asked the police to arrest the convicts but all the four convicts are currently out of Pakistan and hence it is not known when the arrests would be carried out. Both Wahidi and the Geo group have tendered apology after the allegations were levelled but the extremists in the country refused to accept it.
