IRS officer and former NCB Mumbai zonal director Sameer Wankhede has filed a defamation suit in the Delhi High Court against Red Chillies Entertainment, Netflix, and Aryan Khan, claiming that the Netflix series The Ba*ds of Bollywood contains “false, malicious, and defamatory content” that tarnishes his reputation. He alleges the show negatively portrays anti‑drug agencies and misrepresents his role amid pending legal proceedings. The suit demands ₹2 crore in damages (to be donated to Tata Memorial Cancer Hospital), seeks to restrain further show distribution, and labeling of the series as defamatory.
