      Producer-director Ekta Kapoor and her mother Shobha Kapoor recently made headlines after reports of an arrest warrant being issued against them surfaced. As per news agency PTI, the arrest warrant against the duo was issued for allegedly insulting soldiers and hurting the sentiments of their family in their web series 'XXX'.

      Now, Ekta's lawyer has issued a statement dismissing these reports. His statement read, 'In the recent past, there have been news articles alleging the issuance of arrest warrants by a Magistrate Court in Begusarai, Bihar against Ms. Ekta Kapoor and Mrs. Shobha Kapoor. These news articles which appear to have been made on the basis of alleged statements of the advocate for the individual who has filed the complaint are false and inaccurate as no arrest warrants have been received by Ms. Ekta Kapoor or Mrs. Shobha Kapoor.'

      According to PTI, the alleged arrest warrant against Ekta and her mother was issued on the basis of a complaint lodged by an ex-serviceman, Shambhu Kumar. In his complaint filed in 2020, he stated that the web series had several objectionable scenes related to a soldier’s wife.

      Previously, his advocate informed PTI that the mother-daughter duo had been asked to appear before the court in the matter.

      'They (Ekta and Shobha Kapoor), however, informed the court that certain scenes in the series were removed after the objection. But they did not appear before the court following which the warrant was issued against them,' he said.

      The first season of the web series 'XXX' streamed on ALTBalaji, owned by Ekta Kapoor’s TV company Balaji Telefilms. Shobha Kapoor is associated with the company as well. The show's first season was released in 2018, followed by the second season in January 2020.
