Trimurti Films has filed a lawsuit against Adiya Dhar's production house B62 Studios over the alleged unauthorised use of the song Oye Oye in one of its films. The song recently featured in Dhar's latest blockbuster, Dhurandhar: The Revenge.

The dispute concerns the rights to the song, which was co-composed by Kalyanji-Anandji and Viju Shah with lyrics by Anand Bakshi. The track originally belongs to Rajiv Rai's 1989 film Tridev and features vocals by Amit Kumar and Saapna Mukherjee.

In its plea, Trimurti Films has claimed that the song, or a version substantially similar to it, has been used in the defendant’s film without obtaining the necessary licences or permissions, according to a report by Bar and Bench.

According to sources familiar with the matter who spoke to the legal news site, Trimurti Films has asserted ownership and control over the rights to the musical work and sound recording. It has alleged that the usage constitutes copyright infringement, including unauthorised reproduction and communication of the work to the public. It has also raised concerns about the song’s potential commercial exploitation across theatrical releases, streaming platforms and promotional content.

The lawsuit seeks an injunction to prevent further use of the song, along with claims for damages and other related relief.
