Shah Rukh Khan, Ajay Devgn, Tiger Shroff Respond To FDA Notices Over Vimal Elaichi Ad; Two Seek Hearing: Tukaram Mundhe - VIDEO

Shah Rukh Khan, Ajay Devgn and Tiger Shroff have all responded to Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) show-cause notices over their Vimal Elaichi advertisement. FDA Commissioner Tukaram Mundhe confirmed that each actor submitted their responses, with two also requesting a hearing. The hearings concluded on Monday, and the Maharashtra FDA will proceed with the case.

The hearing details remain undisclosed. The FDA's probe began on August 11, after alleging that the actors' endorsement in the ad could be considered indirect promotion of Vimal Pan Masala, a restricted product in Maharashtra. The Maharashtra FDA cited provisions under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, which includes penalties for misleading advertisements.

The Delhi High Court declined to entertain a challenge to the notices in September, stating that Mumbai courts were the appropriate venue for the matter.
