Justice Navin Chawla of the Delhi High Court, on Friday, issued an order restraining the use of Amitabh Bachchan’s name, image, voice or any of his characteristics without his consent. The order is a landmark verdict, the first-of-its-kind in India, which is not only against the defendants namely Rajat Nagi, Rana Partap Singh & Ors. but also the world-at-large for misusing Mr. Amitabh Bachchan’s name, image, voice and personality attributes. It is a ‘John Doe’ order, which is against the world-at-large and has a wider ambit, since it would be impossible for Mr Amitabh Bachchan to keep a track of the recurring infringements.
The misuse of his name, image and voice, especially by the mobile application developers, people conducting lottery by illegally associating with Kbc, book publishers, T-shirt vendors and various other businesses, has prompted Mr Amitabh Bachchan to approach the honourable High Court, seeking restraining order against the use of his personality traits.
