Ilaiyaraaja Sends Legal Notice to Manjummel Boys Producers for Using Guna Song ‘Kanmani Anbodu Kadhalan’ but There’s a Catch!
Ilaiyaraaja issued a legal notice to the producers of Manjummel Boys for using the song “Kanmani Anbodu Kaadhalan” without permission, but recent reports suggest something else.
Renowned music composer Ilaiyaraaja sent a legal notice to the producers of Manjummel Boys for using the song “Kanmani Anbodu Kaadhalan” from the Tamil movie Guna without his permission. The notice, issued through his lawyer, highlighted that although the film’s title cards acknowledged Ilaiyaraaja as the song’s composer, recognition alone doesn’t substitute for proper permission. Since the song was used commercially without authorisation or payment of royalties, the notice demanded that the producers either obtain permission or remove the song from the movie, along with compensating for the unauthorised usage. However, according to the latest reports, the team used “Kanmani Anbodu Kaadhalan” song after obtaining the proper copyrights. Let’s wait for an official announcement from the makers of Manjummel Boys. Who Is Prapti Elizabeth?
