Controversy
In October 2019, the producer of the serial Bhadragol Som Dhital filed a case in Company registrar office to the sakkigoni team(who are formerly worked in his serial) as well as key entertainment and Nepal Television . The producer registered a file asking the Sakkigoni Team not to produce the new serial with content and character almost identical to the previous serial Bhadragol in which they formerly worked. He told to the media that if two serials with identical content runs in the same television it severely affects their serial Bhadragol. But the Sakkigoni writer, Kumar Kattel and Arjun Ghimire denied it and asked to the media that the agreement period between Media Hub and JPT creation is only up to 2076 ashadh also the agreement has a proof that all rights relating to the characters and creation in future goes to the second party i. e. JPT creation (mentioned in an article of their agreement). Also Sakkigoni become a social media favorite up to the five episodes and the team accused the Media Hub that they are jealous because their continuation of Bhadragol with new actors couldn't receive even good public response.
