Ekta Kapoor is one of the popular faces in the entertainment industry. She has made various controversial show and web series. Recently the actress was issued arrest warrant for her series. After that she had requested Supreme Court for protection from arrest warrants against her over her Alt Balaji web series XXX but the appex court warned slammed her.

Supreme Court was hearing a plea filed by Ekta in which she challenged the arrest warrants issued against her for allegedly insulting soldiers and their wives. She was also accused of hurting the sentiments of their families through the 'objectionable content' in the web series XXX, aired on her OTT platform ALTBalaji.

A trial court in Begusarai, Bihar, had issued the warrant on a complaint lodged by an ex-serviceman Shambhu Kumar's allegation that the second season of the series featured several objectionable scenes related to a soldier's wife. Senior advocate Mukul Rohatgi appeared for Ekta and asked the court to provide her protection. The attorney defended Ekta's freedom of choice and also argued that the content in question is subscription based. 

Supreme Court slammed Ekta Kapoor. The  bench said, "Something has to be done. You are polluting the minds of the young generation of this country. It is available to all. OTT (Over The Top) content is available to all. What kind of choice are you providing to the people?....on the contrary you are polluting the minds of youngsters."

The apex court further warned her, "Every time you travel to this court....we don't appreciate this. We will put a cost on you for filing such a petition. Mr Rohatgi please convey this to your client. Just because you can afford and hire the services of good lawyers....this court is not for those who have voices. This court works for those who don't have voices...if these people who have all kinds of facilities, if they cannot get justice then think of the situation of this common man. We have seen the order and we have our reservations."

Supreme Court kept the matter pending and suggested a local lawyer may be put to work to know about the status of hearing in the high court. A trial court in Bihar's Begusarai had issued the warrant on a complaint lodged by Shambhu Kumar, an ex-serviceman. Mr Kumar, in his complaint of 2020, alleged series 'XXX' (Season-2) featured several objectionable scenes related to a soldier's wife.
