Zee Entertainment has called Sony's demand for $90 million in termination fees legally untenable and has also denied the breach of the merger agreement in response to Sony. Sony had scrapped the proposed $10 billion merger with Zee after the latter failed to meet certain financial terms of the deal and come up with a plan to address them, as per sources and reports.
Zee had denied the allegations in a letter to Sony and accused the Japanese company of "bad faith" in calling off the merger.
