A legal dispute initiated by veteran music composer Ilaiyaraaja could lead to the removal of Ajith Kumar’s film, ‘Good Bad Ugly’, from the Netflix streaming platform.
Ilaiyaraaja has filed a legal notice against the film’s producers, Mythri Movie Makers, for allegedly using three of his songs without proper authorization.
The songs in question are “Otha Rubayum Tharen” from Nattupura Pattu, “Ilamai Idho Idho” from Sakalakala Vallavan, and “En Jodi Manja Kuruvi” from Vikram.
The Madras High Court has issued an interim order restraining the production house from broadcasting the film on any platform, including OTT, citing that the producers failed to provide sufficient proof of authorization.
The film, which was released in theaters in April and began streaming on Netflix in May, is now facing an uncertain future on the platform until the next court hearing.
