Controversy

The film lead actor Shakib Khan was sued with fraud and defamation of ৳5 million for using the personal mobile number of a man named Ijazul Mia of Habiganj, Bangladesh, in a dialogue for the film. The film's director Bulbul Biswas and producer Ashfaq Ahmed were also charged in the same case. Autorickshaw driver Ijazul Mia filed the case in Habiganj Senior Judicial Magistrate's Court in Habiganj on 29 October 2016.

Ijazul Mia mentioned in the charge sheet of the case that, actress Apu Biswas said while giving a dialogue in a sequence of the film 'Rajneeti' (26 minutes and 12 seconds of the film), ‘I will not let go of my dream prince again and again.’ In reply actor Shakib Khan said, ‘I will never leave you, my princess.’ Apu Biswas said again, ‘How do you know that my Facebook ID is "Rajkumari"?’ In reply Shakib Khan said, ‘As you know, my mobile number is....’.[10][11][12][13][14][15][16]

Regarding the case Khan stated, "As an artist I just delivered my dialogue. It is not my responsibility to decide whose mobile phone number it is, whether the number is correct or not. It does not come under my jurisdiction. It's the matter of the film's producer, director and scriptwriter. It turns on them. If any other hero in my place had delivered the dialogue, he had nothing to do.[17]
