Some of the promotions were reportedly disguised as entertainment or social service, drawing public ire and triggering police complaints from individuals who claimed to have suffered financial losses. One complainant alleged a loss of over \u20b93 crore after being influenced by YouTube adverts featuring these personalities.<\/p>\n
The individuals named in the case are expected to be summoned shortly for questioning. Several of them have issued public statements denying any wrongdoing, maintaining they terminated endorsement deals upon learning of the ethical and legal concerns.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
