Aaradhya Bachchan Files Defamation Case Against Media Platforms Over Misleading Content

Aaradhya Bachchan, the 13-year-old daughter of Bollywood actors Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai, has taken legal action against multiple media platforms for circulating misleading and defamatory content about her. The Delhi High Court has issued notices to Google, Bollywood Times, and other online entities accused of spreading false reports involving the minor, with the next hearing scheduled for March 17.

This case follows an earlier court ruling from April 2023, in which Justice C Hari Shankar condemned the circulation of videos falsely claiming that Aaradhya was critically ill or had passed away. The court ordered Google to remove such deceptive content, emphasizing that misinformation about children is “entirely unacceptable in law” and stressing that all children deserve dignity, regardless of their public status.

During the latest proceedings, Justice Mini Pushkarna observed that several defendants failed to appear in court, forfeiting their right to present a defense. The court has adjourned the case until the next hearing in March.

Aaradhya, born in 2011, is the only child of Bollywood stars Abhishek and Aishwarya and the granddaughter of Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan. The Bachchan family has frequently found themselves in the spotlight, and Aaradhya’s case highlights concerns about the undue public scrutiny faced by children of celebrities.

In addition to this case, there has been ongoing speculation about Abhishek and Aishwarya’s relationship. Rumors gained momentum after the couple appeared separately at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding celebrations. Abhishek’s social media activity, particularly his interaction with a post about “grey divorces,” further fueled discussions. However, neither Abhishek nor Aishwarya has publicly addressed the rumors about their relationship.

Despite the growing chatter, the couple made a rare joint appearance at a wedding reception in Mumbai just a month ago, temporarily quelling the speculation.
