RGV's film 'Maa Ishtam' has been postponed due to a court order and as claimed by the director, the multiplexes refused to screen his film Ram Gopal Varma’s lesbian action crime thriller Maa Ishtam has been postponed indefinitely. The maverick filmmaker confirmed the news on Twitter saying that many theatres were refusing to screen the film because of its lesbian theme. He said he was exploring all legal options and would come out with a future release date for the film. I regret to inform that we are postponing the film KHATRA DANGEROUS due to non cooperation of many theatres due to its lesbian theme ..We will proceed in all ways to fight this injustice and come at a later date — Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) April 7, 2022 On the other hand, Tollywood producer Natti Kumar has secured a ‘stay’ order from the Civil Court in Hyderabad regarding the release of the film. Natti Kumar had alleged in his complaint that Ram Gopal Varma owed him Rs 5.29 crore and that the latter had been evading him. The Court concurred with Natti Kumar and ordered that the release of ‘Maa Ishtam’ be withheld. Sadly, it has been a double whammy for the Satya-maker, especially on his birthday. Starring Naina Ganguly and Apsara Rani as the leads, ‘Maa Ishtam’ was scheduled for a release on April 8.
