Trimurti Films Sues Aditya Dhar’s B62 Studios: The blockbuster success of “Dhurandhar 2” is now followed by a major legal battle. In a recent controversy, it has been reported that Trimurti Films has filed a lawsuit against B62 Studios that is owned by director Aditya Dhar. In the field complaints, it has been alleged that B62 Studios has used a classic Bollywood song without permission. The case has sparked fresh debates about music rights and licensing in the film industry.
What Is the Controversy?
The dispute revolves around the iconic song ‘Tirchi Topiwale‘. The song was originally composed by Kalyanji-Anandji, and it has the lyrics by Anand Bakshi for the 1989 film Tridev. Trimurti Films has claimed that a version of this song was used in Dhurandhar 2’s track Rang De Lal, and they didn’t have the proper authorization.
According to reports, the production allegedly incorporated elements of the original composition into the new song.
Legal Claims and Demands
Trimurti Films has asserted its ownership over both the musical composition and sound recording of Tirchi Topiwale. The company have approached the court, and they want the following:
- An injunction to stop further use of the disputed song.
- They also want monetary damages for copyright infringement.
- The company wants the complete restrictions on commercial exploitation across theatres, streaming platforms, and promotions
The lawsuit is very important as it highlights how serious intellectual property violations can impact even high-grossing films.
About the Song in Question
In Dhurandhar 2, Rang De Lal is shown as a remixed and modernised version that is composed by Shashwat Sachdev. The track features new vocals and lyrics, and it also credits the original creators.
The song has singers like Amit Kumar and newer artists such as Jasmine Sandlas and Afsana Khan. However, despite these credits, Trimurti Films has argued that proper legal permissions were not obtained. It will be interesting to see what the outcome of this lawsuit could be and how Dhurandhar 2 makers will respond to this.
