One Sanjay Haran had filed the suit over the title of the movie contending that his film (yet to be made) named just ‘13' was registered much before `13 B'.

Haran's lawyer argued that he had a right to object to the title, which is similar to his own and registered in December 2007. `13 B' was registered only last month, he said.

Haran's claimed he had written to Film and Television Producers' Guild (FTPG), with which the title `13 B' has been registered, in this regard.

Haran's counsel said the FTPG had written a letter to BIG Pictures and Adlabs, the producers of the `13 B', to not use the title.

However, lawyer for `13 B', Amit Naik maintained that the film's title is actually `13 B' (Fear has a new address)'.

He further argued that Haran's movie never took off and its shooting is yet to commence.

He aruged that the suit is too late as `13 B' is set to release on Friday, and 100 theaters nationwide had been booked.
