Bombay HC Rejects Stay on 'Saat Samundar Paar' in New Film; Release on Track

• Bombay High Court declined Trimurti Films' plea for an interim stay on the use of "Saat Samundar Paar" in Dharma Productions' upcoming film "Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri".
• Trimurti Films, copyright holder of the 1992 film Vishwatma and its soundtrack, alleged unauthorized use and remix of the song without consent.
• The company sought Rs 10 crore in damages and a permanent injunction, arguing their 1990 agreement with Saregama's predecessor was for limited rights only.
• Justice Sharmila Deshmukh's single-judge bench orally pronounced the order, allowing the film to proceed with its scheduled December 25 theatrical release.
• The court found the balance of convenience did not favor halting the film's release, with the next hearing scheduled for January 9, 2026.
