The Delhi High Court has passed a significant order safeguarding the personality and publicity rights of Jr NTR, putting an end to the unauthorized commercial exploitation of his name, image, identity, and persona.
On December 22, 2025, Justice Manmeet Pritam Singh Arora granted a John Doe order along with an ex parte ad-interim injunction, restraining unknown individuals, online sellers, e-commerce platforms, and third-party merchandise dealers from misusing the actor’s identity for commercial purposes.

Reacting to the verdict, NTR expressed his gratitude to the judiciary and his legal team for their swift and effective intervention. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), he wrote:
“I thank the Hon’ble Delhi High Court for granting a protective order that safeguards my personality rights in today’s digital age.
