Kapil Sharma, Netflix Sued for Copyright Infringement on 'The Great Indian Kapil Show'

  • Phonographic Performance Ltd (PPL) India has sued Kapil Sharma, Netflix, and TGIKS producers for copyright infringement.
  • The suit, filed in Bombay High Court, alleges unauthorized use of songs like "M Bole To," "Rama Re," and "Subha Hone Na De" in three episodes.
  • PPL claims the show used these songs for "public performance/communication to the public" without obtaining the required licenses.
  • Legal action follows a cease-and-desist notice issued by PPL on November 6, which was reportedly ignored by the defendants.
  • PPL seeks an injunction to stop further use, disclosure of revenues, and seizure of infringing material.

Why It Matters: Kapil Sharma's show faces legal action from PPL India over alleged unauthorized song use.
