It is quite common for people to use the photos of their favorite stars as wallpapers on their mobiles or computers. Some do the same in their workplace or in their bedrooms. Some small business people use photos of film stars and sports celebrities to attract people.

While celebrities drag MNCs to court if they do not seek their prior permission, they let go small businesses as it does not affect their business deals. But a small businessman got a shock for using the snap of Shruti Haasan.

A small shop owner in Sultan Bazaar, Hyderabad used Shruti Haasan's photos in his shop. But someone complained against him to Telangana PWD officials who raided his shop and acted against him.

When the officials questioned him, he said he was unaware of the required permissions and used Shruti Haasan's snaps out of adoration for her. However officials did not relent and duly fined him Rs 7000. Shop owner had no other option but to pay the fine. Later he dumped all Shruti Haasan's photos in the dust bin.
