Ram Gopal Varma is a busy man, not just because he is a prolific film maker but also because every film of his welcomes a court case and he has to do rounds at the court before he prepares the premier of each of his films. Nishabd has also welcomed one such court case filed under Copyrights law. The Delhi High Court has issued a notice to Varma's Factory for Copyright infringement.

Jahar Kanungo, an eminent Bengali Film Maker, claims he retains the right for the title 'Nishabd' for 10 years now since his Bengali film of the same title released in 2005. Kanungo's film has won best film award in many International Film Festivals like at Osian's Cinefan Festival Asian Film in July 2005. If Varma Film Factory, Adlabs and Super Cassettes Ltd do not file a reply to the allegations by March 23rd the movie will not be allowed in theatres. And all this hiatus just when fans are counting days for the film to release!!!
