On 3 August 2016, the Bombay High Court not only rejected into allegations by Akashaditya Lama that "Mohenjo Daro" (2016) film director Ashutosh Gowariker had stolen his script, but also "... imposed exemplary and punitive costs of Rs. 150,000 against Lama for putting false allegations and harassing makers of the film. The court has also slammed Lama for giving interviews, media articles and related material put on social media to harass the director and other stars of the film." Gowariker donated the entire fine received (approx. $2,246) to the Naam Foundation, a charity to benefit Maharashtra's drought-hit farmers.
