In a recent turn of events, Yash Raj Films has been made to pay a sum of Rs 10,000 to a complainant by National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC). The decision came after the complainant filed a plea that the makers did not include the song Jabra Fan in Fan, which was promised in the trailer.
Complainant Afreen Fatima Zaidi filed a plea after she was disappointed that the makers did not include the song Jabra Fan in the final cut of the film. The NCDRC considered this as an unfair trade practice and that a person who is paying for a ticket and watching the film might feel disappointed deceived and ejected.
Justice VK Jain after looking at the case directed the Production house to pay the petitioner 10,000.
