== Controversies ==
Darbar became the subject of controversy when he accused A.R. Rahman of having bought the [[Academy Awards]] he won for the film ''[[Slumdog Millionaire]]'' (2008).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/hindi/music/news/Rahman-has-bought-the-Oscars-Ismail-Darbar/articleshow/8746885.cms|title=Rahman has bought the Oscars: Ismail Darbar – Times of India}}</ref> Rahman denied the allegations, but decided not to file a lawsuit against Darbar.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://zeenews.india.com/entertainment/celebrity/oscar-academy-to-sue-ismail-for-rahman-comment_89602.html|title=Oscar Academy to sue Ismail for 'Rahman comment'|date=9 June 2011}}</ref>

On 2 February 2015, Darbar, his son Zaid and their associates were arrested for physically assaulting an assistant director, Prashamit Chaudhury, who had been employed by him earlier. Darbar refused to pay his due salaries and instead settled the score by assaulting his former employee.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.dnaindia.com/mumbai/report-assistant-director-assaulted-by-music-composer-ismail-darbar-s-associates-speaks-out-2058090|title=Assistant director assaulted by music composer Ismail Darbar's associates speaks out|date=4 February 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/tabloid/ismail-darbar-absconding-his-son-held-for-assaulting-assistant-director/article1-1313437.aspx|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150204093040/http://www.hindustantimes.com/tabloid/ismail-darbar-absconding-his-son-held-for-assaulting-assistant-director/article1-1313437.aspx|url-status=dead|archive-date=4 February 2015|title=Ismail Darbar arrested for assaulting assistant director|date=4 February 2015}}</ref>
