Ekta is the producer of Vidya Balan starrer "The Dirty Picture", which was an unofficial biopic of southern sex symbol Silk Smitha.
Director-producer Satabdi Roy decided to make the hit in Bengali, but Balaji Films has sent a letter asking him to not make the film.
Confirming the scoop Tanuj Garg, CEO of Balaji Motion Pictures, told: "A legal notice was sent to the producer restraining them from the usage of the title, because it was the case of passing off.
We received a polite response denying the scoop reports of the sort of film being made by them. The legal notice have been sent to the Kannada film makers also, however the communication with them remains to be happening."
This news has upset Rakhi.
"I don't need to touch upon it presently. I'M very depressed since the film isn't happening, " Rakhi told.
Ekta is an excellent friend of mine, claimed the thing girl and added: "My only message to Ekta Kapoor is that I LIKE her, I just love her. She is my idol. I respect her a lot, she may be a women like me, I'M HOPING she understands me. I'M sure Ekta 'meri zindagi mein taang nahi aadagegi'"
Having said that, Rakhi remains to be hopeful, "I'M 1000 percent sure that this film might be made. Nobody can stop it. I DO KNOW Ekta zaroor man jayegi."
Known for her bindaas attitude and bluntness, Rakhi describes herself as perfect actor to play Silk Smitha within the" Dirty Picture".
"I was very fascinated about the Bengali version of 'The Dirty Picture'. I even started learning Bengali for the film. I DO KNOW I'M sexy, there may be nobody sexier than me. I'M perfect for 'The Dirty Picture', " the 33-year-old said.
Earlier, Ekta tried to forestall producer Venkateappa from making the Kannada version of "The Dirty Picture", however the filmmaker started the project upon getting a green signal from a movie body.
The shooting of Kannada version titled "Dirty Picture: Silk Sakkath Maga" stars Pakistani actress Veena Malik within the lead role. Thrishool is wielding the megaphone for it.
