    KOLKATA: Streaming giant Netflix has recently launched the trailer of upcoming documentary Bad Boy Billionaires: India. However, it has got into a controversy where fugitive businessman Mehul Choksi has moved to Delhi High Court against the show.

    According to media reports, Choksi’s advocate Vijay Aggarwal, sought postponement of the documentary’s release as it may hamper the investigation.

    “Thereafter, the petitioner (Choksi) discovered that one of the persons seen speaking in the trailer was one Mr Pavan C Lall who had written a book titled Flawed: The Rise and Fall of India’s Diamond Mogul Nirav Modi where also the petitioner’s name had been commingled with Nirav Modi’s,” the plea read.
