Regarding the Punjabi movie Vyaah Kartaare Da, the production company has accused Dubai-based Humble Motion of wrongfully terminating a services agreement.
Due to the alleged illegal termination of a services agreement related to the forthcoming Punjabi feature film "Vyaah Kartaare Da," Karan Johar's production company, Dharma Productions Private Limited, has filed a case against Dubai-based Humble Motion Pictures FZCO in the Bombay High Court. [Humble Motion Pictures FZCO v. Dharma Productions Pvt Ltd]
The Arbitration and Conciliation Act's Section 9 petition sought immediate interim protection while the arbitration was pending.
When Humble requested time to submit a response, the petition was scheduled to appear before Justice Sandeep Marne on February 12.
The next hearing on the case is set for February 18.
The services agreement of December 10, 2025, was set up to allow Humble to provide marketing, consulting, and related services for the movie and to facilitate the recovery of losses of roughly ₹7.25 crore incurred on a previous film that was made with Humble, according to Dharma's appeal.
According to the agreement, Dharma was entitled to a variety of income shares until a set sum of ₹7.03 crore was recovered, and it was not required to pay production costs.
The plea claims that Humble abruptly terminated the arrangement in an email dated January 21 after Dharma marketed the movie on its official social media account, stating that it no longer wanted to use Dharma's services.
According to the petition, there is no termination-at-will clause in the contract, no breach is claimed against it, and Humble has already profited from Dharma's reputation and brand affiliation.
In order to prevent Humble from acting in accordance with the termination email and in violation of the Services Agreement, Dharma has requested injunctive action.
The business has also requested for protective financial measures, such as orders for Humble to provide thorough financial disclosures and pay or deposit 50% of the movie's theater overflow and other earnings.
Additionally, the production company has asked the court to order Humble to deposit ₹7.03 crore.
Senior attorney Surel Shah represented Dharma, accompanied by attorneys Yash Momaya, Parag Khandhar, Chandrima Mitra, Anaheeta Verma, and Zara Dhanboora who had been briefed by DSK Legal.
