Apart from India's win during India Vs Pakistan World Cup 2019 match, the other thing that was grabbing headlines was Ranveer Singh. After the match, the Padmaavat actor even shared a bunch of photos in his Instagram handle but one picture with Hardik Pandya got him into serious trouble. It was not the picture but the caption that landed him in trouble. So much so that, Ranveer got a litigation warning from WWE Wrestler Brock Lesnar’s advocate Paul Heyman for using a catchphrase which was made popular in WWE.
However, today, he tweeted saying that it wasn't a warning but had sent him a notice. Not only that, Paul took a dig at a publication and clarified that he is not his manager but his advocate. He wrote, "I didn't warn. I served noticed. And while I applaud @TheStatesmanLtd for their coverage of #YourHumbleAdvocate and @BrockLesnar , I must stress that I am not a manager (what an outdated, antiquated term). I am an #Advocate. And I'm the best #Advocate in history."

While sharing a picture with Hardik Pandya, Ranveer Singh captioned it as, "The tweet read, “Eat. Sleep. Dominate. Repeat. The name is Hardik. Hardik Pandya. @hardikpandya7 ma boi #unstoppable."
Eat.

This is not the first time Paul Heyman has been paranoid about Brock Lesnar's catchphrase. Earlier, Paul had not spared the ICC World Cup who praised MS Dhoni after he helped India win the third ODI of the series against Australia, Heyman tweeted, "My most (in)sincere compliments to @cricketworldcup for promoting the amazing @msdhoni by paraphrasing my mantra for @WWE #UniversalChampion @BrockLesnar #EatSleepConquerRepeat. Our royalties may be paid in cash, check, stock or cryptocurrency."

Guess, this catchphrase should not be used by anyone.
Meanwhile, Ranveer is shooting and prepping for his Kabir Khan film '83 which is based on the legendary victory of the Indian Cricket Team in 1983 against West Indies. The actor will enact the role of Indian Skipper Kapil Dev while Deepika Padukone will enact the role of Kapil Dev’s wife Romi Dev. The film is scheduled to hit the big screens next year.
