Mumbai: Indian Revenue Service (IRS) officer Sameer Wankhede declared that he will keep fighting for justice after Delhi High Court rejected his defamation plea against Aryan Khan’s ‘The Ba***Ds Of Bollywood’.
Ruling that the Delhi HC lacks the territorial jurisdiction to hear his defamation plea against the Netflix web series, Justice Purushaindra Kumar Kaurav directed the IRS officer to present his case before a competent court.
I will do the needful and keep fighting for justice,” Wankhede told HT City.
In his petition, Wankhede alleged that the web series, written and directed by Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan, targeted him to malign his reputation and settle personal scores following the star kid’s arrest in the 2021 drugs case.
Wankhede had sued Shah Rukh’s Red Chillies and Netflix for defamation and sought Rs 2 crore in damages.
