Other stars to seek personality rights
Similar instances of Bollywood actors seeking legal recourse to safeguard their personality rights have occurred in the past. Last year, Anil Kapoor also approached the court to secure protection for his personality rights. The actor achieved success in the case in January of this year. The victory entailed safeguarding his name, voice, image, likeness, manner of speaking, gestures, and even his iconic 'jhakaas' catchphrase.
In 2022, Amitabh Bachchan also moved the Delhi Court in a similar case, seeking protection of his name, image, voice, and personality attributes.
