An
erroneous
perception
has
been
created
around
Javed
Akhtar’s
truce
with
Kangana
Ranaut
regarding
their
long-standing
legal
battle.
For
those
who
came
in
late,
Kangana
had
accused
Javedsaab
of
intimidation
over
a
meeting
that
they
had
regarding
her
alleged
relationship
with
Hrithik
Roshan.
Javedsaab
retaliated
with
a
defamation
case.
It
ended
with
Kangana
submitting
an
unconditional
apology.
Responding
to
Kangana’s
apology,
Shabana
Azmi,
Javed
Akhtar’s
wife,
spoke
exclusively
to
Subhash
K
Jha,
“They
had
asked
for
no
monetary
compensation
but
for
her
apology
in
writing.
The
victory
is
his
and
his
lawyer,
Jay
Bhardwaj’s.
“But
I’m
mystified
why
the
press
made
it
seem
as
though
it
was
a
mutual
settlement,
not
an
apology
in
writing
which
he
was
seeking
and
why
he
had
fought
the
case
for
four-and-a-half
years.”
In
an
interaction
right
after
Kangana’s
apology,
Javedsaab
had
said,
“She
has
given
a
letter
of
regret
and
apologies,
unconditionally
withdrawn
her
words
and
given
a
statement,
making
a
commitment
that
she
will
never
repeat
them
again.
Apologies
for
the
inconveniences
caused
to
me.
This
is
what
I
wanted
and
this
what
I
got.”
