Controversy

In 2019, Pathak was blamed for copying some scenes from the film Bala in his film Ujda Chaman. He received a legal notice from the team of the film Bala after which in an interview, he said that he released the trailer of the film Udja Chaman before the film Bala. He claimed that if the trailer was released before the changes were to be made in the film Bala. Later, Pathak sent a notice to Maddock Films when the film was announced. In an interview, he talked about this and said,

We are in discussions with my team right now. We had sent them a notice when we bought the rights, early 2019 because even their announcement had come around the same time. I gave them all the documents because their film sounded similar. They said except for the character being bald, nothing is similar and I bought their words. But now that doesn’t seem to be the case. Dialogues, situation, everything seems similar and even people have caught onto it.”
