A Mumbai court has restrained YouTuber Ajey Nagar, popularly known as CarryMinati, from creating or publishing “defamatory, vulgar and abusive” content targeting filmmaker Karan Johar and directed social media platforms to take down existing videos aimed at him. Johar, represented by DSK Legal, sought a temporary injunction to restrain Nagar and his associates from making or uploading such content. The court’s order also requires platforms hosting the videos to remove them. The YouTuber's lawyer submitted that he had already deleted the videos and other material in question and hence, there was no cause of action left. It also asked Meta platform to take down the videos.
