Delhi HC summons in Kangana Ranaut AI content suit, order due in Deverakonda plea
The Delhi High Court on Thursday, 8 October 2026, issued summons in actor and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut's suit seeking protection of her personality rights against obscene and AI-generated content on social media. Justice Vikas Mahajan also issued notice on her interim injunction application. The court asked her counsel to name the defendants for the takedown order. The suit is listed for hearing in February 2027.
Separately, the court heard actor Vijay Deverakonda's plea against fake endorsements, impersonation and AI-manipulated images. Justice Mahajan said he would pass an order on the interim injunction. Senior advocate Swathi Sukumar said some offending URLs had already been taken down after the suit was filed and served.
The court has previously protected personality rights of several public figures, including actors Tabu, Allu Arjun and cricketers Abhishek Sharma and Yuvraj Singh.
