MUMBAI -- Riteish Deshmukh has slammed the makers of upcoming adult-comedy Mastizaade, claiming they have breached his contract by "blatantly" using him in the promotions even though he has just two scenes in the movie.

Directed by Milap Zaveri, the film stars Sunny Leone in double roles alongside Tushar Kapoor and Vir Das in lead roles. Riteish appears in a cameo in the movie.

The film's trailer features the actor prominently.
