Overview
- Sanober Sheikh has sent a legal notice seeking Rs 2 crore and asking that the February 13 release be halted or cancelled until her concerns are addressed.
- She alleges the film wrongly portrays a romantic angle between Hussain Ustara and Sapna Didi, asserting they shared a sibling‑like bond and disputing depictions of criminality.
- She denies issuing any threats to the filmmakers and says the family wants to view the movie before release, vowing to pursue the matter in court if necessary.
- She says the team replied to her first notice but not subsequent ones, and she plans further legal steps as the makers have not confirmed whether the story is based on Ustara.
- Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj and starring Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri, O Romeo remains slated for a theatrical release on February 13, 2026.
