Mumbai: A court has directed YouTuber Ajey Nagar, aka CarryMinati, from making “defamatory, vulgar, and abusive” content about filmmaker Karan Johar. It also asked social media platforms to take down Nagar’s existing videos targeting the filmmaker.Civil judge P G Bhosale passed the interim order in a suit filed by Johar against Nagar. Many other parties, including Nagar’s manager Deepak Char, One Hand Clap Media Pvt Ltd as well as Google and Meta, have been named as defendants.Johar claimed that certain videos circulating on social media sought to ridicule him and damage his reputation and goodwill “painstakingly built over decades”. He sought a temporary injunction to restrain Nagar and his associates from making and uploading such clips. Nagar’s lawyer said he had already deleted the clips and, hence, there was no cause of action left. PTI
