The film, that released in February to critical acclaim as well as box office success, is an adoption of the novel &#39;The 3 Mistakes of My Life&#39; by Chetan Bhagat. Advocate Bhautik Bhatt, the petitioner, says the film depicts incidents related to the riots &quot;with biased intention and half-heartedly only with a view to defaming a particular group of people belonging to Hindu community&quot;. He also demands that riot scenes be deleted or edited and &quot;criminal action&quot; be taken against producers &quot;for defaming the group of Hindus at large&quot;. Pending the final decision, the producers should be restrained from selling TV rights and releasing DVD/CD of the film, the petition says. The judges scheduled the hearing for June 20 after the petitioner said he would provide an official DVD of the film to the court for its viewing.u00a0
