The company stated that these threats were not rooted in legitimate criticism but were clearly coercive in nature.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe recently came across evidence \u2014 including call recordings \u2014 indicating that a few individuals were demanding money and threatening to malign the reputation of our films, directors, and lead actors if their demands were not met. We believe such behaviour warrants investigation by the appropriate authorities,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, the production house has referred the matter to investigative agencies for lawful action. While firm in their stance against malicious behaviour, NGE emphasised that their actions are not targeted at genuine reviewers or independent voices within the film community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wish to emphasise that these actions are directed solely at those engaging in such malicious practices and not at any genuine, independent reviewers or YouTubers. We value honest work and wholeheartedly welcome their contributions to the healthy progress of the film industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting their longstanding commitment to the Indian film industry, NGE also reiterated their support for free speech and open dialogue: \u201cWe are firm supporters of the freedom of speech and expression as enshrined in the Constitution of India. We have never objected \u2014 and will never object \u2014 to fair criticism or reviews of our films. On the contrary, we believe that constructive criticism is essential for helping filmmakers grow and for fostering the healthy development of the industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Nadiadwala&#8217;s latest projects<\/h3>\n<p>In 2025, Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment has rolled out a long lineup of films across genres. Currently running is Baaghi 4, an action thriller starring Tiger Shroff, Sanjay Dutt, Sonam Bajwa, and Harnaaz Sandhu, directed by A.
