Mohanlal Moves Delhi High Court to Protect Personality Rights Ahead of ‘Drishyam 3’

Mollywood superstar Mohanlal has taken a significant legal step by approaching the Delhi High Court, seeking protection of his personality and publicity rights. The move comes at a time when the actor is gearing up for the release of his much-anticipated film Drishyam 3, scheduled to hit screens on May 21, 2026.

As per reports, Mohanlal’s plea urges the court to restrain unauthorized use of his name, image, voice, and overall likeness—especially in AI-generated content and commercial platforms. The actor is aiming to safeguard his identity from misuse in the rapidly evolving digital landscape.

This development reflects a growing trend in the industry. Prominent stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Chiranjeevi, Akkineni Nagarjuna, Vivek Oberoi, and Jr NTR have also pursued similar legal measures in recent times to protect their personal and commercial rights.

With increasing concerns around deepfakes and AI-driven content, such actions underline the importance of securing celebrity identities against unauthorized exploitation.

Meanwhile, on the professional front, Mohanlal remains focused on his upcoming projects, with Drishyam 3 being his immediate priority. The film is already generating strong anticipation among audiences.
