On July 2, 2026, the Delhi High Court granted an ex parte ad interim injunction to actor Ravi Kishan, protecting his personality rights against unauthorized use of his name, image, and voice. The court found that Kishan established a prima facie case and was likely to suffer irreparable harm without protection. The injunction restrains defendants from exploiting Kishan's identity through technologies like AI, deepfakes, and machine learning. Allegations included the creation of pornographic content and AI-generated videos mocking his speech. The court ordered the removal of infringing URLs within three days and mandated major tech platforms to disable access to offending content within 72 hours of notification. This ruling highlights the growing concern over the misuse of celebrity identities in the digital age.
