Web Series Scoop: Chhota Rajan tries to stop the release of ‘Scoop’

The web series ‘Scoop’ is in discussion. This series is going to release tomorrow i.e. on June 2 on Netflix. On the other hand, gangster Rajendra Nikhalje aka Chhota Rajan is trying his best to stop this series. The jailed gangster has moved the Bombay High Court to stay the release of the web series ‘Scoop’. Chhota Rajan argues that misusing her personality characteristics without her prior consent is defamatory as well as a violation of her rights.

Asked for a compensation of Re 1

 

Chhota Rajan is currently lodged in Tihar Jail. He has demanded a stay on the release of ‘Scoop’ series and removal of the trailer. The gangster also demanded Hansal • Mehta and other makers of the series, including Netflix Entertainment Services India, to stop the violation of his personality rights. Apart from this, he has also demanded one rupee as compensation.

Said this about the trailer of ‘Scoop’

Rajan has also said in the petition that the money earned by the producers through the telecast of the trailer of the series should be deposited to be used for the public good or upliftment of society. In his petition, Chhota Rajan has said that in May 2023, he got information about the trailer of this series from his wife. The petition states that the makers of the series were not allowed to use/misuse Rajan’s name and image, use any of his voice or events without prior permission. Therefore, using anything related to his personality without prior permission is a violation of his rights.

Hearing can be held on Friday

This petition can be heard in the High Court on Friday. Please tell that in June 2011, journalist Jyotirmoy Dey was murdered. Eleven others, including Rajan and journalist Jigna Vora, were accused in the case. In May 2018, Rajan and eight others were convicted in the case. Whereas, Vora was acquitted. Let us tell you that ‘Scoop’ is a six episode series.
