Jasleen Royal took legal action against Guru Randhawa
Guru Randhawa is a big name in the Punjabi entertainment industry. He is a singer, songwriter and composer whose songs often prove to be chartbusters. He is known for songs like ‘Lahore’, ‘Patola’, ‘High Rated Gabru’ etc. However, now troubles seem to be increasing for this famous singer. Recently, singer Jasleen Royal has filed a copyright case against him. Apart from this, the ‘Din Shagna Da’ singer has also included T-Series and lyricist Raj Ranjodh in this case.
Case filed in Bombay High Court
Jasleen Royal has filed a case in the Bombay High Court in her copyright infringement case. The case names T-Series, Raj Ranjhodh and Guru Randhawa, who have allegedly used her music without permission. The allegation is related to the song “All Right”, which is part of the “Zee Thing” album. Jasleen has accused Guru Randhawa of using her music from ‘All Right’ in his song without permission.
The composition was prepared during the promotion of ‘Runway 34’
The statement said that Jasleen had created some original compositions for the promotional events of the Ajay Devgan starrer film ‘Runway 34’ in the year 2022. She shared these compositions with lyricist Raj Ranjodh through audio-video calls and messages. Later these compositions were included in the scratch version of the song.
Jasleen has claimed that the composition was used without consent
While Guru Randhawa was considered to lend his voice to the song, Jasleen did not like the initial recordings made by Guru, due to which the two did not work on the song and Jasleen Royal retained all the copyrights of the song. In December 2023, Jasleen Royal discovered that the song “All Right,” released by T-Series, featuring Guru Randhawa, used her original music composition without permission and without any credit. In such a situation, Guru Randhawa and T-Series have been accused of copyright infringement by Jasleen.
The song will have to be removed from all streaming platforms
The suit alleges copyright infringement and violation of moral rights. Jasleen Royal’s lawyers have secured an interim order from the court, asking T-Series to remove the song from all streaming platforms (such as YouTube, Apple Music, Spotify, Hungama Music, Jio Saavn, Facebook, Gaana.com, Wynk Music, Moj, Josh, and ShareChat). Additionally, Raj Ranjhod and Guru Randhawa are restrained from using the song in any manner. The court has also stipulated that Guru Randhawa will give Jasleen Royal a two-week prior notice before using the song.
