Aseem Merchant unperturbed by Priyanka Chopra's legal notice
 
Priyanka Chopra's ex-boyfriend Aseem Merchant is in no mood to buckle to Priyanka Chopra's legal pressure over film 67 Days, supposedly based on the actress' life. "We are going ahead with the project and we do not want to succumb to any pressure tactics. We have already replied to her notice," said Aseem. Priyanka Chopra had sent a legal notice to Aseem and a copy of it to her former manager Prakash Jaju in a bid to stop them from making the film on her, which the duo claims which is based on Jaju's life.
 
The producer's lawyer Alankar Kripkekar also confirmed that Aseem will indeed make a biopic on Prakash Jaju who was Priyanka Chopra's former business manager. "I can only say that we have the rights to Jaju's biopic, 67 days, and we are going ahead with the project. Withdrawing publicity material of the film is simply not true. The film is in its nascent stage right now, as we have not yet written the script of the film. As for defamation, why would we want to defame anyone? It is Prakash Jaju's story and we are going to stick to it." Aseem however said, he is not seeking anyone else's approval. "We have bought the rights of Prakash Jaju's biopic. So no, I am not showing the film's script to anyone."
