Mumbai: Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap has shot down rumours that he has sued director Prakash Jha.
 

It was earlier reported that Prakash and his production house were sued for Rs 1 crore by Anurag's Phantom Films over Jai Gangaajal rights.

According to reports, Phantom Films, a jointly owned by Anurag, Vikas Bahl, Vikramaditya Motwane and Madhu Mantena, claimed that it owns the IPR (Intellectual Property Rights) of the original film and also the rights to make a sequel or any adaptation based on Prakash's Gangaajal.

Priyanka Chopra starrer Jai Gangaajal is a sequel of the 2003 crime film Gangaajal, which revolved around an senior police officer, who was assigned to an extremely corrupt town.
