The Delhi High Court on Friday passed an interim order to prevent the unlawful use of Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan's name, image and voice. The court, through its order, restrained persons at large from infringing the personality rights of the actor.
"It cannot be disputed that the plaintiff is a well-known personality and is also represented in various advertisements. The plaintiff is aggrieved by the defendants using his celebrity status to promote their own goods and services without his permission or authorisation. Having considered the plaint, I am of the opinion that a prima facie case is made out," the court said.
