The Supreme Court of India has transferred Ilaiyaraaja’s copyright suit from the Madras High Court to the Bombay High Court in the ongoing dispute with Sony Music Entertainment India.
The Court said the dispute should be heard in Bombay since the original copyright case was already pending there.
The Delhi High Court has restrained Ilaiyaraaja from exploiting sound recordings and musical works owned by Saregama in 134 films. The Court held that allowing such use may cause irreparable loss to the music company and passed an interim injunction.
