Suniel Shetty in talks to adapt Black Scorpion; keen to portray gangster Shyam Kishore Garikapati: Report Veteran actor Suniel Shetty is exploring a new creative direction by entering into conversations to acquire the adaptation rights of the true-crime book Black Scorpion: To Hell and Back, with the intention of transforming it into a long-form web series. The narrative chronicles the life of Shyam Kishore Garikapati, a notorious underworld figure in Mumbai during the late 1980s and 1990s who later turned into a businessman. According to a report by Mid-Day, Shetty has been deeply engaged with the book’s content in recent days, and his interest goes beyond acquisition. The report indicates that he is also considering playing the central role of Garikapati in the adaptation, which would mark a significant on-screen return to gritty crime drama for the actor. The portal quoted a source saying, “Suniel thinks the story has the potential to be a thrilling web series. He likes such subjects. What makes the story more interesting is how Garikapati — known in the police circles as Black Scorpion — turned his life around after meeting top cop Kiran Bedi in Tihar Jail and eventually became a businessman. ”The news of Shetty’s interest in this project comes amid his continued involvement in varied roles and ventures across the industry. He has been active in both on-screen and off-screen creative decisions, with several projects in different stages of development.

Vivek Oberoi secures interim relief as Delhi HC restrains misuse of identity The Delhi High Court has granted significant legal relief to actor and entrepreneur Vivek Oberoi, restraining the unauthorised use of his name, image, voice and other aspects of his personality, after he moved the court over widespread misuse of his identity across digital platforms and commercial products. The order underscores the judiciary’s growing recognition of personality and publicity rights in the age of artificial intelligence and online impersonation. In a suit filed in early February, Oberoi sought legal protection against various entities that were allegedly exploiting his identity without consent through fake social media accounts, AI-generated or morphed visuals, and other digital content. The Delhi High Court, presided over by Justice Tushar Rao Gedela, observed that Oberoi’s longstanding career and public recognition mean that his name and likeness embody significant goodwill and reputation worthy of legal safeguarding. Court Order and Key DirectionsThe court’s interim order banned the unauthorised commercial or personal use of Oberoi’s identity, including his name, image, voice, likeness and signature. This injunction applies to a range of technological mediums, including AI tools, deepfake technology and face-morphing applications. It also directed major online intermediaries — such as YouTube, Meta Platforms and X Corp — to remove links to all infringing content within 72 hours... #High_Court #Delhi_High #Vivek_Oberoi #entrepreneur_Vivek #restrains_misuse #widespread_misuse #Oberoi_secures #Vivek #Oberoi #legal_relief

Mumbai Court refuses to halt release of Shahid Kapoor-starrer O’Romeo In a significant legal relief for the makers of O’Romeo, a Mumbai sessions court has refused to stay the release of the Shahid Kapoor-starrer, dismissing a plea filed by the family of late Mumbai resident Hussain Ustara, who claimed the film falsely portrayed his life and damaged his reputation. The Mumbai Sessions Court rejected a notice of motion filed by Ustara’s daughter, Sanober Shaikh, who had sought to block the film’s release on the grounds that it was loosely based on her father’s life and depicted him as a gangster. With the dismissal, the film is now cleared for its scheduled release on February 13. While rejecting the plea, Additional Sessions Judge HC Shende clarified that the court’s observations would not affect the ongoing civil proceedings. “The Notice of Motion is dismissed. It is clarified that the observations made in the order are prima facie in nature and shall not influence on the final adjudication of the suit,” the judge said. What the Petition Claimed Shaikh, through her counsel DV Saroj, argued that the film’s trailer created a misleading impression of her father as a criminal figure, which she said was contrary to his real-life role. The petition asserted that Hussain Ustara was a journalist and a police asset, who worked closely with the Mumbai Police and the Intelligence Bureau to prevent criminal activities across India. “Due to these activities, his life was constantly i... #Mumbai #Shahid_Kapoor-starrer #Kapoor-starrer_O’Romeo #Mumbai_sessions #sessions_court #Hussain_Ustara #Mumbai_Court #late_Mumbai #Mumbai_resident #Court_refuses
