the present suit seeking protection of his own name, image, likeness,
persona, voice and various other attributes of his personality against misuse
of all hues over the internet.
22. The Plaintiff’s case is that he is one of the most celebrated, acclaimed
and successful actors in the Indian film industry, and has extensive
appearance in over 100 films, multiple television shows and web series. He
has endorsed a large variety of products & services and has appeared in
several advertisements as well.
23. The films and serials in which the Plaintiff had acted are a matter of

 also the National Film Awards, Zee Cine Awards, IIFA etc. amongst others.
The Plaintiff also has registered trademarks in favour of its production
company- Anil Kapoor Films Company, bearing registration number
‘1811341’ in class 41, details of which are set out in paragraph 17 of the
plaint. The Plaintiff also claims to have produced several successful and
critically acclaimed films, such as “Gandhi, My Father”, “Veere di
Wedding”, “Fanney Khan”, “Thar”, as also produced various web-series
and TV shows.
25. It is his case that his name and persona, apart from having immense
commercial value, is liable to be protected against misuse and tarnishment
over the internet. In the present suit, the Plaintiff seeks protection of his
personality rights, publicity rights and elements associated with his persona
such as:
• His name;
• His voice;
• His photograph/image/likeness;
• His manner of speaking and dialogue delivery;
• His gestures;
• His signatures etc.
26. According to the Plaintiff, his voice is also of immense value as he
has lent his voice for Hindi dubbing of some of the most viewed films such
as “Baloo the bear” which is a Hindi dubbed version of the film “Mowgli:
Legend of the Jungle” for the character “Baloo”. He also provided his voice
for the character “Karna” in “Mahabharat 3D Film” (2013), and the Hindi
dubbed version of Mani Ratnam’s “PSI” (2022).

 27. The Plaintiff also claims that the expression ‘Jhakaas’, which is a
Marathi slang word, roughly translated as ‘fantastic’, ‘awesome’ or ‘superb’
in English, was popularized by him through one of his Hindi movies,
namely ‘Yudh’. A perusal of the press reports and videos would show, that
the manner in which he delivers the said word, while speaking a dialogue,
and the nature of expression is exclusively synonymous with the Plaintiff’s
energetic and enthusiastic persona.
28. The rights claimed by the Plaintiff, in the present suit, are stated
below:
A. Personality rights, including right to publicity;
B. Copyright in the dialogue, image as also in other associated
works;
C. Common law rights including the right to be protected against
passing off, dilution and unfair competition.
29. It is the case of the Plaintiff that the Defendants have committed the
following illegal acts:

30. The allegation of the Plaintiff is that all the Defendants are in some
manner utilizing various features of the Plaintiff’s persona, and are misusing
the same in malicious ways. Some examples are illustrated below:
• Publishing and collecting fee by using his photographs that he would
be attending an event, as a motivational speaker;
• Using morphed images of the Plaintiff and collecting monies for
selling prints of his images;
• Creating wallpapers on mobile phones using Plaintiff’s image;
• Using voice, dialogues and names from his movies in his own voice,
as ringtones and ring back tones;
• Promoting and selling merchandise such as magnets, T-shirts, cups,
stickers, keychains, using his photographs with/without the word
‘Jhakaas’.
• Advertising and selling face masks with the Plaintiff’s pictures;

 • Providing electronic stickers with Plaintiff’s image and collecting
monies for the same;
• Using his name and photographs for posters;
• Selling suits under the Plaintiff’s name and image;
• Providing forged autographs and photographs of the Plaintiff;
• Creating images and videos of the Plaintiff in a morphed manner;
• Using Artificial Intelligence to produce images and videos that are
extremely derogatory, not merely to the Plaintiff but to other actresses
as well including Katrina Kaif, Madhuri Dixit and Late Sridevi,
whose faces are being morphed with the Plaintiff’s face – resultantly
picturising the Plaintiff on a song or photograph with the clothes worn
by these actresses;
• Generating images of the Plaintiff as cartoon characters using
Artificial Intelligence;
• Providing GIF images of the Plaintiff on various social media
handles;
• Squatting on domain names such as www.anilkapoor.in,
www.anilkapoor.net and www.anilkapoor.com;
• Creating, publishing, and disseminating fake pornographic videos of
the Plaintiff along with other actresses.
31. The above incidents of misuse are merely illustrative in nature and is
meant to demonstrate the spectrum of illegalities and unlawful conduct
which the Defendants are indulging in.
32. According to the plaint, a large number of these websites/Defendants
are collecting monies, fee etc. by selling various merchandise with

 Plaintiff’s image, likeness and other elements of his persona, and are gaining
monetary benefits out of it.
33. Mr. Anand, ld. Counsel appearing for the Plaintiff has relied upon a
few decisions of foreign courts and Indian courts to argue that elements of a
personality such as name, image, likeness, voice, and other attributes are
protectable elements. He places reliance on the following decisions:
• Bette Midler v. Ford Motor Company [849 F.2d 460 (1988)]
• Vanna White v. Samsung Electronics America [971 F.2d 1395
(1992)].
34. Another recent development that has been brought to the notice of the
Court are the proposed guidelines titled ‘Prevention and Regulation of Dark
Patterns 2023’ (hereinafter, ‘Draft Guidelines’) issued under Section 18 of
the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 by the Ministry of Consumer Affairs,
Government of India, seeking to protect consumers against what is termed
as “dark patterns”. Such dark patterns include practices on the internet that
are deceptive in nature in order to somehow mislead and trick the
consumers, and subvert or impair their decision-making skills, which is
violative of consumer rights. Some illustrative dark patterns are also
contained in Annexure 1 to the said Draft Guidelines that have been placed
before the Court.
35. Ld. Counsel for the Plaintiff also seeks to distinguish the recent
decision of this Court in Digital Collectibles PTE Ltd. v. Galactus Funware
Technology Pvt. Ltd. & Anr., 2023:DHC:2796, by arguing that in the said
judgment, the case involved two competing gaming platforms where the
Defendants’ business would have shut down, lest the cricketers’ images
were not permitted to be used. It is, further, submitted that in the said case,

 there was a disclaimer on the website and the real images themselves were
not being used as non-fungible token (‘NFTs’).
36. The Plaintiff has placed some additional documents on record which
show that images of other well-known celebrities are being used in a manner
that is totally offensive to their personalities, for example, ‘Gandhi Ji with a
gun’. Such images, though, may constitute satire for some people, would be
offensive to the society in general.
37. Heard ld. Counsel for the Plaintiff and perused the record.
38. Fame can come with its own disadvantages. This case shows that
reputation and fame can transcend into damaging various rights of a person
including his right to livelihood, right to privacy, right to live with dignity
within a social structure, etc. There can be no doubt that free speech in
respect of a well-known person is protected in the form of right to
information, news, satire, parody that is authentic, and also genuine
criticism. However, when the same crosses a line, and results in tarnishment,
blackening or jeopardises the individual’s personality, or attributes
associated with the said individual, it would be illegal.
39. There can be no justification for any unauthorised website or platform
to mislead consumers into believing that they are permitted to collect fee by
incorrectly portraying that they can bring the Plaintiff as a motivational
speaker. Using a person’s name, voice, dialogues, images in an illegal
manner, that too for commercial purposes, cannot be permitted.
40. The celebrity’s right of endorsement would in fact be a major source
of livelihood for the celebrity, which cannot be destroyed completely by
permitting unlawful dissemination and sale of merchandise such as t-shirts,
magnets, key chains, cups, stickers, masks, etc. bearing the face or attributes

 of their persona on it without their lawful authorisation.
41. Moreover, any form of misuse or commercial use of a celebrity’s
name, voice, persona, likeness has also been disapproved by the Supreme
Court in the seminal judgment of R. Rajagopal v. State of T.N., (1994) 6
SCC 632, famously called as the ‘Auto Shankar case’. The relevant extracts
of the same are set out below:
“9. The right to privacy as an independent and
distinctive concept originated in the field of Tort law,
under which a new cause of action for damages
resulting from unlawful invasion of privacy was
recognised. This right has two aspects which are but
two faces of the same coin — (1) the general law of
privacy which affords a tort action for damages
resulting from an unlawful invasion of privacy and (2)
the constitutional recognition given to the right to
privacy which protects personal privacy against
unlawful governmental invasion. The first aspect of
this right must be said to have been violated where, for
example, a person's name or likeness is used, without
his consent, for advertising — or non-advertising —
purposes or for that matter, his life story is written —
whether laudatory or otherwise — and published
without his consent as explained hereinafter [...]
…..
26. We may now summarise the broad principles
flowing from the above discussion:
(1) The right to privacy is implicit in the right to life
and liberty guaranteed to the citizens of this country by
Article 21. It is a “right to be let alone”. A citizen has
a right to safeguard the privacy of his own, his family,
marriage, procreation, motherhood, child-bearing and
education among other matters. None can publish
anything concerning the above matters without his
consent — whether truthful or otherwise and whether
laudatory or critical. If he does so, he would be

 violating the right to privacy of the person concerned
and would be liable in an action for damages. Position
may, however, be different, if a person voluntarily
thrusts himself into controversy or voluntarily invites
or raises a controversy.
(2) The rule aforesaid is subject to the exception, that
any publication concerning the aforesaid aspects
becomes unobjectionable if such publication is based
upon public records including court records. This is
for the reason that once a matter becomes a matter of
public record, the right to privacy no longer subsists
and it becomes a legitimate subject for comment by
press and media among others. We are, however, of the
opinion that in the interests of decency [Article 19(2)]
an exception must be carved out to this rule, viz., a
female who is the victim of a sexual assault, kidnap,
abduction or a like offence should not further be
subjected to the indignity of her name and the incident
being publicised in press/media.
(3)……..”

42. The technological tools that are now freely available make it possible
for any illegal and unauthorised user to use, produce or imitate any
celebrity’s persona, by using any tools including Artificial Intelligence. The
celebrity enjoys the right of privacy, and does not wish that his or her image,
voice, likeness is portrayed in a dark or grim manner, as portrayed on the
porn websites. Moreover, the Plaintiff’s image is being morphed along with
other actresses in videos and images generated in a manner, which are not
merely offensive or derogatory to the Plaintiff, but also to such other third-
party celebrities and actresses.
43. The Court cannot turn a blind eye to such misuse of a personality’s
name and other elements of his persona. Dilution, tarnishment, blurring are
all actionable torts which the Plaintiff would have to be protected against.

 44. Even the domain names that have been registered are just being
squatted upon, and there can be no reason why the same could be allowed to
be squatted upon. The creation of ringtones and GIF images for commercial
gains would also be a complete misuse of Plaintiff’s rights.
45. Under these circumstances, this Court has no doubt in holding that the
Plaintiff’s name, likeness, image, persona, etc., deserves to be protected, not
only for Plaintiff’s own sake but also for the sake of his family and friends
who would not like to see his image, name and other elements being
misused, especially for such tarnishing and negative use.
46. The present case shows how elements of intellectual property that
protect the attributes of an individual, in fact have other dimensions
including rights protected by the Constitution of India.
47. Accordingly, the Plaintiff has established a, prima facie, case for
grant of an ex parte injunction. Balance of convenience lies in favour of the
Plaintiff in the present case considering that the Defendants are infringing
his personality rights as well as right to privacy. If an injunction is not
granted in the present case, it will lead to irreparable loss/harm to the
Plaintiff and his family, not only financially but also with his right to live
with dignity.
48. Defendant Nos.1 to 16 or anyone acting for or on their behalf are
restrained from utilizing the Plaintiff-Anil Kapoor’s name, likeness, image,
voice, personality or any other aspects of his persona to create any
merchandise, ringtones, ring back tones, or in any other manner misuse the
said attributes using technological tools such as Artificial Intelligence,
Machine Learning, deep fakes, face morphing, GIFs either for monetary
gains or otherwise to create any videos, photographs, etc., for commercial

49. Defendant No.17-PDR Ltd., Defendant No.19-GoDaddyLLC and
Defendant No.20-Dynadot LLC are directed to immediately lock and
suspend the domain names www.anilkapoor.in, www.anilkapoor.net and
www.anilkapoor.com.
50. Ld. Counsel for Defendant No.19 submits that Defendant No.18-
Domains by Proxy LLC would not be necessary as a party, as Defendant
No.19 has the control over the domain name www.anilkapoor.com.
Accordingly, Defendant No.18 is deleted as a party. The other unknown
persons are also restrained from disseminating the videos, the links of which
are attached to the present order as ‘Annexure A’. The said links shall be
taken down immediately by all ISPs.
51. The DoT/MeitY upon receipt of this order shall issue blocking orders
in respect of all these links and any other links, which may upload
pornographic videos of the Plaintiff. Mr. Harish V. Shankar, ld. CGSC is
requested to communicate this order to the DoT/MeitY. DoT/MeitY are
henceforth impleaded as Defendant Nos.22 and 23 respectively in the
present suit. Let an amended memo of parties be filed by the Plaintiff
deleting Defendant No.18 as a party within 2 weeks.
52. The three domain name registrars i.e., Defendant Nos.17, 19 and 20
shall inform the Plaintiff of the registrants of the domain name

period of one week from communication of this order to them.

Accordingly, the three domain names shall be transferred in favour of the
