Para penerbit filem dan syarikat produksi Bollywood terkenal telah memfailkan saman terhadap dua saluran berita televisyen atas tindakan melaporkan berita yang tidak sahih berkenaan kes pembabitan dadah dalam industri susulan kematian aktor Sushant Singh Rajput.
Selain itu, saluran berita dan media turut menjadikan aktres Rhea Chakraborty, yang juga teman wanita Sushant, sebagai sasaran utama dalam kes tersebut sehingga dia dipenjarakan baru-baru ini.
"Privasi orang-orang industri Bollywood telah dicerobohi, dan reputasi mereka jatuh apabila seluruh Bollywood telah dicorak sebagai penjenayah, terbabit dalam budaya dadah, dan menjadikan penglibatan dalam Bollywood sinonim dengan kelakuan jenayah kepada umum," tulis plaintif yang dipetik dari BBC News.
Kes yang difailkan di Mahkamah Tinggi Delhi itu dikenakan terhadap pengasas Republic TV, Arnab Goswami dan Pradeep Bhandari, serta pengasas Times Now, Rahul Shivshankar dan Navika Kumar.
Sehingga kini pihak defendan masih belum tampil dengan sebarang kenyataan dan tiada maklumat lanjut tentang tarikh perbicaraan kes ini di mahkamah.
Syarikat produksi milik selebriti terkenal seperti Shah Rukh Khan (Red Chillies Entertainment), Salman Khan (Salman Khan Films), Aamir Khan (Aamir Khan Productions), Karan Johar (Dharma Productions), Rohit Shetty (Rohit Shetty Pictures) dan Ajay Devgn (Ajay Devgn Films), adalah antara plaintif yang memfailkan saman.
