Mary Kom issued a press release to caution the public, businesses, and media about unauthorised individuals or organisations misusing her name and image for promotions or endorsements. She clarified that any past agreements with celebrity management firms have expired, and she is no longer associated with any such contracts.
Here is what the press release says:
Olympic medalist and world champion boxer Mary Kom wishes to address the public regarding the unauthorized use of her name and likeness in connection with a celebrity management agreement that already stands lapsed.
“It has come to my attention that some individuals and organisations, and their associates, are attempting to leverage my name for promotional activities, endorsements, and other purposes without my consent. I want to make it clear that henceforth, any agreements or contracts related to my name, image, or brand that were previously in place with any celebrity management company have expired, and I am not currently associated with any such agreements. It is made clear also that if anyone engages with the abovesaid organizations, individuals and others, without my consent, then they shall do so at their own risks and consequences only.”
“I urge the public, businesses, and media to exercise caution and verify any claims or promotions that involve my name. Unauthorized use not only misrepresents my brand but also undermines the integrity of my career and personal values.”
“I appreciate the support of my fans and the media, and I trust that you will respect my wishes regarding this matter. For any inquiries or clarifications, please contact my official representative/s [Hitesh Choudhary, Chairman, Mary Kom Boxing Foundation].”
Thank you for your understanding.
Sincerely,
M.C. MARY KOM
