- The court directed that a clear disclaimer be displayed and required the producers to file an affidavit within two weeks supporting that position.
- Promotional material must not name the petitioner’s husband, with the court seeking assurance that no content or marketing identifies real individuals.
- The series was scheduled to premiere on December 25 on Waves OTT, and the court listed the matter for further hearing on January 7, 2026.
- Petitioner Richa Dubey alleges the show is an unauthorised biographical portrayal that invades privacy and dignity and could stigmatise her family.
