Bombay HC adjourns Kangana Ranaut's office demolition matter till Sept 22

The Bombay High Court on Thursday adjourned actor Kangana Ranaut's office demolition matter till September 22. Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has filed its reply and Kangana's lawyer has sought time to respond to the affidavit.

A bench of the High Court had asked the BMC to file a reply on her petition in the matter.

Ranaut, through her lawyer Rizwan Siddiqui, had moved the High Court against the demolition of what the BMC termed as "illegal alterations" at her office.

The BMC had on Tuesday served a "stop-work" notice to Ranaut for alleged unauthorised construction in her office in Mumbai, mentioning 14 violations after taking note of several "illegal'' alterations. On Monday, the civic body had carried out an inspection at the office of the actor turned filmmaker's film company 'Manikarnika Films.'

Ranaut has been engaged in a bitter war of words with Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut after her remarks that she feels unsafe in Mumbai and has no trust in the Mumbai Police after the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
