It looks like Netflix and Squid Game are facing some issues. The hit South Korean series is now dealing with a legal case, as Indian filmmaker Soham Shah has sued the show's writer and the platform for copyright infringement.

Soham Shah's Squid Game plagiarism allegations

According to a TMZ report, filmmaker Soham Shah is accusing Netflix’s hit series Squid Game of copying his 2009 film Luck. The lawsuit claims that the storyline of Squid Game closely mirrors Luck. The movie, starring Imran Khan, Sanjay Dutt, and Shruti Haasan, is about a group of people in debt who are drawn into a series of competitive games for a chance to win big money. Apparently, the film shares noticeable similarities with the 2021 series Squid Game.
