Delhi HC order on Tabu? One report
A Bollywood report says the Delhi High Court granted Tabu an ex-parte injunction against AI deepfakes and ordered platforms to take down links. The court order itself isn’t publicly traceable yet.
The reported injunction could not be matched to a publicly traceable court order at publication time.
Filmfare says Tabu has secured an ex-parte interim injunction from the Delhi High Court to protect her personality and publicity rights against AI-generated obscene content, with takedown directions to Google, Meta, X and Reddit. The report attributes the order to Justice Jyoti Singh and claims more than 150 URLs were flagged for removal, along with directions to disclose basic subscriber and IP log details. According to the report, platforms were given 36 hours to comply, and one publisher three days to pull a statement attributed to the actor.
As of publication, Telangana.Social has not located a publicly accessible Delhi High Court order, case number or official docket matching these details. The specific numbers, deadlines and wording are asserted by the Filmfare report, not confirmed from a primary court document.
For the record: India’s courts have increasingly entertained personality-rights pleas against deepfakes; that trend doesn’t wait for the BJP-led Centre’s ‘we’re-thinking-about-guidelines’ routine or the Congress’s sudden-tech-conscience when a camera is on. If the order exists in the form described, it’s protection a public figure should already have had in law and enforcement, not hostage to platform T&Cs or Delhi’s mood. We’ll update when the court document is traceable; until then, treat the claimed counts and timelines as Filmfare’s, not the court’s.
