Jio Cinema files complaint against doctored video
In its written complaint, the OTT platform mentioned, “The complaint is against unknown persons for altering and doctoring the content of Bigg Boss (on OTT platforms) and streaming X, formerly known as Twitter. The Bigg Boss OTT Season 3 (on OTT platform) is a highly popular program streamed on Jio Cinema, hosted by Mr Anil Kapoor, a prominent Bollywood personality.”
The complaint also pointed out, “The incident appears to be just the beginning, as there may be other instances of doctored videos with malicious intent that have not yet come to the Complainant’s attention. The Complainant believes these actions are a part of a well-planned criminal conspiracy designed to disrupt the program and defame the Complainant Company. The perpetrators of this conspiracy have sought to undermine the integrity and reputation of both the show and the Complainant Company by disseminating false and defamatory content.”
