What Happened

The Delhi High Court granted Amitabh Bachchan time until November 16 to finalize settlements reached with some defendants in his personality rights lawsuit. However, the court said that if the settlement remains incomplete and he wishes to continue pursuing the case, he must appear in person at the next hearing. The suit, filed in 2022, seeks protection against the unauthorized commercial use of his name, image and voice.

Key Takeaways

The court has left the door open for an amicable resolution but made it clear that Amitabh Bachchan's personal appearance will be required if the dispute proceeds further.
