Reportedly Boney Kapoor sold the creative rights of the film to Zee, but  when he found out about the release of the teaser, he requested them to put it on hold for a while. As per reports he has requested Zee to credit him as a co-producer of the film as well.

Recently the director of the original Shekhar Kapur expressed his grief for having no knowledge about the  upcoming trilogy of Mr India 2, he also shared how no discussion was made with makers of the original film, before announcing the remake. He also took to Twitter and hinted, that he may take legal actions against Mr India 2 trilogy makers, for not acquiring the creative rights of the film from him.

Sonam Kapoor took to social media to share her disappointment about the same. Sonam stated that it's quite disrespectful and underhanded for the makers to have not consulted her father Anil Kapoor, nor the film's director Shehkhar Kapur before announcing the film's remake. Sonam also mentioned that her father was just not the hero of the film but also a part producer of the cult classic, in-spite of that he had no knowledge of this remake.
