The former woman employee of now-defunct Phantom Films, who levelled allegations of sexual harassment against Vikas Bahl, told the Bombay High Court on Friday that she doesn’t intend to take any legal action against the filmmaker. Now following the latest plot twist, we hear that Vikas is reportedly back to finishing the post-production work of his forthcoming directorial Super 30, starring Hrithik Roshan in the lead.
A leading daily quoted a source as saying, "There is one more day of shooting left for the film. It will be completed in Poland. Once the shoot is done and an edit is locked, VFX and the CG will be done. If all goes right, the film will come out on January 25, along with Manikarnika."

Well, it looks like what worked in Vikas' favour was that "the producers of Super 30, Sajid Nadiadwala and Reliance, did not sack him and replace him immediately" following the accusations of sexual misconduct against him.
Meanwhile, Vikas recently moved the Bombay High Court against his former Phantom Films partners Anurag Kashyap and Vikramaditya Motwane to restrain them from posting any false #MeToo allegations against him. He had also filed Rs 10 crore defamation suit against them by stating that the statements have been made as a "result of professional jealousy" and with an intent to malign his image and destroy his career.
