Ilaiyaraaja, who used to be in the news for his tunes, continues to be in the news for the same tunes even now. He is taking people to court if they use his composed songs without his permission and without paying him the appropriate compensation.
Recently, he is arguing about the use of his old tunes in the movie “Good Bad Ugly.” It’s hard to understand why music directors should have complete rights in this matter, rather than producers who spend crores on filming these songs after paying the requested amount and also paying the lyricists generously.
