"I will plead with any judge that if the matter is brought to the court, ensure that within just a day or two the case is heard and that damages are awarded against that media house," he said.

According to him, managers of television stations who are eager to show his movies should do the needful by contacting him so a fee can be negotiated, adding that his main interest is in reviving the movie industry.
