This was on the grounds that faith and worship is a constitutional imperative.
“It has come to my Client’s knowledge that, a movie namely Ram Setu has been filmed and is set to be released on August 24. That Court proceedings are an integral part of saving the Ram Setu being demolished by previous Governments and if the same is being picturized in the Addressee’s film, then my Client has contributed in the film vide the Court proceedings initiated and my Client is bound to be recognized for the same with correct picturization of original facts and the Original Petitioner’s name used anywhere in the film.”

About a month back, Subramanian Swamy had targeted actor Akshay Kumar over Ram Setu when he alleged that wrong facts are being shown about Ram Setu in Akshay’s film. He had said that he will file a case against the makers of the film and Akshay Kumar.
Ram Setu is directed by Abhishek Sharma and stars Akshay Kumar, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nushrratt Bharuccha, and Satya Dev.
