Salman Khan is still waiting for his fees for a film in which he acted almost two years ago.

And the movie is Garv in which Salman played the cop Arjun Ranawat starring opposite Shilpa Shetty .

And Salman has filed eight criminal complaints in a magistrate's court in Mumbai against directors of Cinevistas Ltd for recovery of Rs 26.42 lakh due to him as professional fees for acting in their film 'Garv', released two years ago.

The court had issued bailable warrants against the directors of Cinevista, Sunil Mehta and Premkishen on March 2 but cancelled them later after they appeared before the magistrate.

The matter would come up for hearing on May 4, according to Salman's lawyer Dipesh Mehta.

Salman had acted in the lead role in the film for which he was promised Rs 26.42 lakh. Accordingly, eight cheques were issued to him under various denominations but they were dishonoured by the bank with remarks 'payment stopped by drawer'.

The actor served legal notice on Cinevista and its directors under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act on August 6 last year. When they did not respond, the actor moved the court.

Salman filed separate complaints of bouncing of eight cheques in a magistrate's court on September 19 last year. A month later, the court issued process against directors of Cinevista. As they failed to appear, bailable warrants were issued but cancelled after they came before the court.
