The Bombay High Court has taken strict action against Salman Khan’s neighbour for making defamatory allegations against him.

The Dabangg actor, who has been in the headlines for quite some time now, previously filed an appeal against Ketan Kakkad for posting tweets about an alleged property dispute in the Panvel neighbourhood.

The court responded quickly, noting that no one is permitted to use social media platforms to make derogatory remarks against individuals.

It also ordered the actor’s neighbour to delete all such posts made with the intention of damaging his public reputation.

The court observed, “Just because one has access to social media does not mean they can upload videos about any person, whether a common citizen or a celebrity, merely to defame them.”

“Why upload such videos on social media? You could have approached the appropriate authorities... The videos were uploaded way back in 2019 and 2020. Who will be interested in this now? Why have a trial in media?”

While other details are still under wraps, the case will proceed in July 2026. Until then, the court has ordered Ketan to remove the posts from all social media platforms.
