After Anand Kumar was accused of fraud, the makers of upcoming movie Super 30 decided to not call their movie a biopic anymore.[13]

Super 30 will be the last movie of Phantom Films. The production house has been dissolved because director Vikas Bahl was accused of sexual misconduct by actress Nayani Dixit and a Phantom employee. This will be the last project of Phantom Films.[14]
