Actor Jackie Shroff has filed a petition in the Delhi High Court seeking protection for his name, likeness, and the unauthorized use of his nickname 'Bhidu.' Legal action has been initiated against several entities for unauthorized use of his name, images, voice, and moniker. The case is scheduled for a hearing on May 15, with potential issuance of an interim order. Shroff's advocate stated that his images and voice have been misused in offensive memes. The actor seeks protection for his various names and attributes, insisting they cannot be used without authorization. Additionally, he requests the removal of unlawfully violating links and websites. This mirrors previous cases in Bollywood, such as Anil Kapoor's successful pursuit to protect his personality rights.
