We are proud to share that Bar & Brief Attorneys successfully represented the producers of the animated feature film "Mahaprabhu Jagannath" before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, securing urgent relief that enabled the film's nationwide release.
Late on 15 July 2026, Ele Animations Pvt. Ltd. received an order from the Hon'ble Orissa High Court staying the pan-India release of its CBFC-certified animated film. With the release imminent, our team worked through the night to prepare and file a Special Leave Petition, which was mentioned before the Hon'ble Supreme Court the very next morning.
After hearing all parties, the Hon'ble Supreme Court granted leave and modified the impugned order, permitting the film's nationwide release on or after 28 July 2026.
We are grateful to our client for the trust reposed in us and privileged to have assisted in securing timely relief in a matter where every hour mattered.
