The petition filed through Advocate Neeraj Shekhar reads, "Petitioners face a threat unto life if the trials proceed in Mumbai, because of a personal vendetta of Shiv Sena leaders against the petitioner."
Advocate Ali Kashif Khan Deshmukh had filed a criminal complaint against Ranaut before the Andheri Magistrate Court for allegedly spreading communal hatred. According to Live Law India, “Court ordered an inquiry under Section 202 of CrPC and called for a police report on the allegations against the siblings.

The second complaint was filed by veteran lyricist, Javed Akhtar, before the Court of Metropolitan Magistrate, alleging that the actress had made defamatory statements on national and international television against him. He alleged that "it appears to be a clear campaign to malign and tarnish the reputation of the complainant (Akhtar) in the eyes of the general public”. The case was filed under sections 499 and 500 of the Indian Penal code pertaining to defamation. Akhtar had recorded his statement in January 2021 whereas the actress failed to appear before the court after she was summoned. Then the court issued a bailable warrant against her.
