Bengaluru: Kannada film producer/ director Yogaraj Bhat of Mungaru Male fame has decided to knock the doors of the court over two bounced cheques issued by a movie producer.

According to the sources, Bhat has decided to move to court against Kanakapura Shrinivasa, producer of Dana Kayonu starring Duniya Viji and Priyamani. This movie, which was released in 2016 failed at the box office.

It can be recalled that the movie release was also surrounded with controversy following war of words between producer and director over non-payment of remuneration.

According to the sources, as per the initial agreement, Kanakapura Shrinivas had assured Rs.68 lakh for Bhat for movie direction and song composition. But as the film flopped at the box office, Kanakapura Shrinivas wanted to renegotiate the amount. After the intervention of the state film chamber, Bhat had agreed to bring down his remuneration to Rs. 23 lakh. Kanakapura Shrinivas had issued two cheques for the same amount. But now as the cheque bounced, Bhat has decided to move to court seeking relief.
