The Bombay High Court grants interim relief to Ananya Panday, restraining the unauthorised use of her identity, including AI deepfakes and impersonating chatbots, and directing removal of related content. The court also orders actions aimed at preventing access to offending material, according to reports.

Outlets describe the case as grounded in privacy and dignity, with Ananya Panday alleging that businesses used her photos and generated AI-based content without consent. The court’s directions focus on takedown and related enforcement steps against platforms hosting or enabling objectionable content. Reporting varies in how broadly the orders are framed, including references to fake merchandise and chatbot-style impersonation.

While all accounts centre on the Bombay High Court’s interim relief and takedown-type measures, coverage also points to a broader legal context involving similar disputes: one report notes that the Delhi High Court gave Kriti Sanon limited relief, with particular carve-outs.
