Former NCB officer Sameer Wankhede has filed a lawsuit against Shah Rukh Khan and Red Chillies Entertainment over his alleged portrayal in 'The Ba***ds of Bollywood,' a Netflix series created by Aryan Khan. This legal battle stems from the high-profile 2021 cruise ship drug case that saw Aryan Khan spend 22 days in jail before being cleared of all charges. Wankhede's complaint seeks Rs 2 crore in damages, claiming the series deliberately damages his reputation through its characterization of an anti-drug officer.
