Looks like there's more trouble in store for Great Grand Masti. Firstly, the movie was leaked online almost two weeks prior to its theatrical release and now, Bollywood actor Shiney Ahuja has slapped the makers of the film with a legal notice.

The actor has reportedly taken offence on a maid in the movie being named as 'Shiney.'

According to The Times of India, Shiney Ahuja has sent a legal notice to  Ekta Kapoor, Jeetendra and Indra Kumar in the matter. A source from the legal firm that sent the notice to the makers of Great Grand Masti was quoted saying that naming a maid after Shiney was a quirky take on the infamous rape case of the maid in which the Gangster actor was involved. Shiney's advocate explained that this act constitutes Criminal Contempt as defined under Section 2(c) of the Contempt of Court Act 1971, added TOI.

Shiney Ahuja was convicted in March 2011 in the said case (filed by his maid in 2009) after which he had filed an appeal against his seven-year-jail term. The case is pending hearing before the Bombay High Court as of now.
