Overview

• Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan filed separate Delhi High Court suits seeking removal of AI videos and court‑mandated safeguards so uploaded YouTube content does not train other AI platforms.
• The actors are seeking $450,000 in damages and a permanent injunction against unauthorised use of their names, images, voices and personas.
• In early September, the court ordered 518 specified links and posts taken down and has asked Google to submit written responses before a January 15, 2026 hearing.
• The filings span roughly 1,500 pages and cite hundreds of links featuring allegedly egregious or sexually explicit AI‑manipulated content, yet similar videos remain on YouTube, Reuters found.
• The case highlights YouTube’s policy that lets creators opt in to share videos for third‑party AI training, India’s lack of explicit personality‑rights law, and prior Delhi court relief for actor Anil Kapoor.
