A couple of days back, filmmaker K.R. Ravi Rathnam approached the Madras High Court to file a petition saying that Lingaa’s storyline was his. The petition also included the names of Superstar Rajinikanth, director K.S. Ravikumar, B. Ponkumar and Rockline Venkatesh.

The Madras High Court has issued a notice to the team of Lingaa saying that the case would be heard by November 19. After Kaththi, it now seems to be Lingaa’s turn to face legal battles. Lingaa’s audio is slated to be launched on November 16 and the film is expected to release on Thalaivar’s birthday.
