The Delhi High Court has recently restrained the misuse of the name, image, voice and other attributes of persona, including the “jhakaas” catchphrase of actor Anil Kapoor for commercial gain. Acknowledging that such misuse can damage a celebrity’s right to endorsement, the Court also added that “fame for a person comes with disadvantages” and “this case shows that reputation and fame can transcend into damage”
The Delhi High Court today deferred hearing on a petition filed by the Resident Doctors Association, All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) and others against Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev for his derogatory remarks against allopathy and allopathic doctors regarding the treatment of Covid-19.
The Doctors Association alleged that Baba Ramdev was creating doubts in the minds of general public regarding the safety and efficacy of allopathic treatments, as well as the Covid-19 vaccines
