Delhi High Court Bars Unauthorized Commercial Use of Amitabh Bachchan's Persona
The Delhi High Court has granted relief to Amitabh Bachchan in a personality rights case, permanently barring multiple defendants from unauthorized commercial use of his name, image, voice, and likeness. The court passed a final decree against several parties involved in misuse through mobile apps, online domains, merchandise, and publications. Some defendants settled by acknowledging Bachchan's rights and agreeing to cease infringement, while others faced court orders for non-appearance. The ruling reinforces protections for public figures against unauthorized exploitation of their persona.
