Indian Revenue Service (IRS) officer Sameer Wankhede has filed a defamation suit in the Delhi High Court against Netflix and several other entities, alleging that the recently released drama series The Ba **ds of Bollywood* misrepresents anti-drug enforcement agencies and tarnishes his personal reputation.

The series, directed by Aryan Khan in his debut venture and produced by Red Chillies Entertainment, premiered on September 18 on Netflix. Wankhede, who came into the spotlight in 2021 as the then Mumbai zonal director of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) for arresting Aryan Khan in a high-profile drugs case, has named Netflix, Red Chillies Entertainment, X Corp, Google LLC, Meta Platforms Inc, RPG Lifestyle Media Pvt Ltd, and unknown defendants (John Does) as parties in his suit.
