Producer Amit Mehra who's remaking his illustrious father Prakash Mehra's 1973 Amitabh Bachchan classic Zanjeer is embroiled in a remake-compensation battle together with his own brother Puneet Mehra.

Puneet has apparently gone to court for the compensation amount as a result of him to relinquish remake rights to Amit. But Amit says he has already submitted the due money within the honourable court and that the dispute isn't between the Mehra brothers but between Puneet Mehra and Salim-Javed, the scriptwriters of the unique Zanjeer, who've legally staked a claim to compensation for the remake.

Says the harassed Amit, "THE MONEY is with the honourable court. Now it's as much as the legal procedure to validate who's to get the compensation. Puneet or Salim-Javed."

On his part, Amit is immensely embarrassed by the family dispute popping out into the open. "Among us three brothers, only I appear to have inherited our father's passion for cinema. My brothers appear to have little interest in movies. It means each time I NEED to remake considered one of my father's films I've to get right into a compensation conflict with them. I'm willing to bear the pain so long as our father's legacy is carried forward."

Amit who grew up desirous about his father's films including Zanjeer may be very proud of the result of the remake up to now. "We've shot some exceptional sequences between Ramcharan and Priyanka Chopra in Hyderabad. Now we move to Mumbai for action sequences between Mr. Sanjay Dutt and Ramcharan. I FEEL Papa would has been happy with what we've done."
