The recent Kannada blockbuster Kantara has landed in legal trouble. A few days back, Kerala-based musical band Thaikkudam Bridge filed a copyright infringement complaint against the makers of Kantara, alleging that the song ‘Varaha Roopam’ from the film is copied from their popular track ‘Navarasam’.
Now, a Kerala court passed an injunction against the makers of Kantara and several musical platforms that are playing the song ‘Varaha Roopam’. The magistrate said that the makers and the musical platforms cannot play the song without taking permission from Thaikkudam Bridge.
Informing about the judgement, Thaikkudam Bridge released an official note on their Instagram handle. The note read, “The principal district and the sessions judge, Kozhikode, has injuncted the producer, director, music composer, Amazon, Youtube, Spotify, Wynk Music, Jio Saavn, and others from playing the song Varaha Roopam in the film Kantara without the permission of Thaikkudam Bridge.”
“Suit for Injunction has been filed on behalf of Thaikkudam Bridge by Music Attorney, Satish Murthi, Advocate Supreme Court of India,” the note further added. Now, the makers of Kantara have to move to court to get a stay order.
