Famous people of Bollywood have filed
a lawsuit in Delhi High Court for 'irresponsible reporting' of Sushant Singh
Rajput's death case on some media establishments.
Among those who filed the case are
four organizations representing the film industry and 34 producers.
This case has been filed against
Republic TV, Arnav Goswami, Pradeep Bhandari of Republic TV, Times Now, Rahul
Shivshankar and Navika Kumar.
These people of Bollywood say that
they should be prevented from making derogatory and irresponsible remarks
against Bollywood and Bollywood people.
There has also been a demand to
interfere in the rights of the personalities of Bollywood, the privacy of those
associated with them and to stop media trials.
The petitioners contend that the
defense cable television networks are bound by the program code of 1994 and all
the objectionable things that have been heard against Bollywood should be
withdrawn.
The petition also demanded a ban on
the publication of abusive material about Bollywood on television channels as
well as social media platforms.
In a press release issued by the
petitioners, these channels have been accused of saying 'filth',
'garbage-garbage' and 'junkies' about Bollywood.
