‘Ba**ds of Bollywood’ row: HC questions maintainability of Sameer Wankhede’s plea; asks how defamation suit can proceed in Delhi

The Delhi High Court questioned the maintainability of Sameer Wankhede’s defamation suit against Shahrukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment and Netflix, concerning the series ‘The Ba***rds of Bollywood’. Wankhede alleges the series harms his reputation and seeks damages. The court granted Wankhede time to amend his application, arguing the series is streamed in Delhi, causing defamation there.
