Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha has expressed anger at online brands that are using her pictures without permission.

The 38-year-old actress took to Instagram Stories, slamming several brands for misusing her photos on e-commerce websites without her approval or the usage rights.

The Dabangg star wrote, "As someone who shops online often, I could not help but notice my images popping up at several brand websites-- without usage, rights or even a courtesy request for permission. 

How is that acceptable? When an artist wears your outfit or jewellery, a post is made giving your brand due credit, but featuring those same images on your official website?

That is stretching it a bit too far. Let's keep things ethical, shall we? Basically, what I'm saying is pull down my images before I start calling you out," She added.

On the work front, Sonakshi was last seen in the mystery-horror film Nikital Roy, which also marked the directorial debut of her brother, Kussh S. Sinha.

Released on July 18, 2025, the film failed to impress audiences despite high expectations and turned out to be a box office disaster.

Made on a budget of Rs. 20 crores, it managed to earn only about Rs. 1.51 crores.
