Filmmaker Soham Shah has filed a lawsuit against Netflix, alleging that the plot of its popular series Squid Game is a "blatant rip-off" of his 2009 Hindi-language film Luck. The lawsuit, filed in a New York federal court on Friday, comes as Netflix prepares to release the second season of the show later this year. Shah's film revolves around desperate, indebted individuals participating in deadly competitive games for large sums of money. It starred Sanjay Dutt and Imran Khan.
