The Court noted that personality rights have previously been recognised and protected by the Delhi High Court in cases including D.M.
The Court has restrained Defendants 1 to 7, including unidentified John Does, from using, exploiting or misappropriating any attribute of Tabu's personality or publicity rights without her consent or authorisation.
Meta Platforms Inc. has been directed to remove or disable 73 URLs in Document-A, 28 URLs in Document-B and five URLs in Document-C, also within 36 hours.
In another significant direction, the Court ordered Google, Meta, X, Reddit and GoDaddy, as applicable, to disclose Basic Subscriber Information and IP log details to Tabu.
The direction could assist the actress in identifying the persons behind the accounts and online material allegedly exploiting her identity and personality rights.
