Big B threatens to sue Bihar police over poster

November 12, 2012 08:57

Bihar police has removed the posters containing Amitabh Bachchan's pictures after megastar has threatened to take legal action against them saying the photograph has been used without his consent.

The posters were part of an educational programme 'Adhaura 30' and were being used to educate the youths in the Naxal-affected district and wean them away from the Maoists' influence.

"Just read news about my photograph being used by Bihar police .. This is illegal, no consent taken or given, lawyers in action now ..," Bachchan posted on Twitter.

The Bihar government too has issued a formal apology.
