Just yesterday, Aishwarya Rai urged the Delhi High Court to protect her personality rights and to restrain certain persons from unauthorisedly using her name, images, and AI-generated pornographic content. 

"There can be no right in their favour to use her images, likeness, or persona. A gentleman is collecting money merely by putting my name and face," Mr. Sethi argued. "Her name and likeness is being used to satisfy someone's sexual desires. This is very unfortunate," senior advocate Sandeep Sethi, appearing for Aishwarya Rai, said.

The high court listed the matter for further proceedings before the joint registrar on November 7 and before the court on January 15, 2026.
