According to reports, Tamannaah Bhatia is scheduled to appear for questioning on April 29 regarding the unauthorized streaming of IPL matches via the Fairplay App, resulting in substantial losses for Viacom. Maharashtra Cyber tweeted that Tamannaah Bhatia has been summoned for questioning in connection with the illegal streaming of IPL matches on Fairplay App that caused a loss of crores of rupees to Viacom.

Sanjay Dutt was initially summoned to appear before the Maharashtra Cyber Cell on April 23 but he was not able to comply with the summons as he was out of the country at that time.
