Days after the release of Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone starrer Fighter, it received legal notice. According to recent news in India Today, there was a kissing scene between Patty and Mini that seems to have offended an Air Force officer from Assam.

The Indian Air Force officer further alleged that the portrayal of the kissing scene between Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone especially within the context of military attire is perceived as a disrespect to the honor and sanctity associated with the uniform, hence a legal notice has been sent to the makers of Fighter.
