Elucidating on the matter, Farhan said the dispute was between two writers and not between producers and anyone else.
"...There was never a thing like whether the film can be made or not. There was never discrepancy on that. The thing was title credit dispute between writers. It was also at Film Writers Association, they ruled a certain way and then the court ruled a certain way. We are producers and we will follow what the court says," he said.
With the first instalment striking chord with the audiences, the 'Dil Chahta Hai' helmer said he is not under any kind of pressure on how 'Rock On 2' will perform.
"I am enjoying myself. I am not thinking about the pressure. Those things come much later when the film is nearing the release date. Right now I am happy with the fact that the film is being made," he said.
The "Bhaag Milkha Bhaag" star plans to release 'Rock On 2' in October or November next year.
On being asked if he plans to turn 'Rock On' into a franchise, Farhan says, "That time will tell...Right now we want 'Rock On 2' to be made."
Farhan will be next seen is Bejoy Nambiar's 'Wazir' alongside megastar Amitabh Bachchan and actress Aditi Rao Hydari, which will hit screens on January 8.
