defamation legal notice send to my youtube channel mail ID


03-Jul-2023 (In Startup Law)
I own a youtube channel, and I made a troll video on a person who is a fugitive of India and has left the country. The video is more than 1 year old and now a legal notice has been sent on behalf of him to my youtube mail ID seeking payment of 1 crore for defamation. I have already taken down the video. there are lakhs of video on youtube regarding the same subject, can a fugitive take case against me and how will i check whether its legit?

you will oppose defamation notice against you, send a reply notice with the help of an advocate. the constitution of India provide the fundamental right to freedom of speech which is also limited in some extend. you can questions the delay and take a contention that you are selectively targetting even similar videos are in youtube within easy search
