New Delhi, Jul 15 (PTI) The Delhi High Court has restrained 56 websites from illegally streaming newly released Bollywood films “Maalik” and “Sarbala Ji” produced by Tips Films Limited.
Justice Amit Bansal prohibited the websites from hosting, streaming, or distributing any copyrighted content belonging to the producer without appropriate authorisation.
While restraining the websites from streaming the films “Maalik” starring Rajkumar Rao, Manushi Chillar and released on July 11, and “Sarbala Ji” starring Ammy Virk and Gippy Grewal and to be released on July 18, the court observed prospective “irreparable harm” to the plaintiff.
“A prima facie case is made in favour of the plaintiff. Balance of convenience is also in favour of the plaintiff and against the defendants. Further, irreparable harm or injury would be caused to the plaintiff if an interim injunction order is not passed,” the judge on July 11.
The court posted the hearing on November 17.
Tips Films Ltd. moved court citing the “imminent threat” of online piracy.
The complaint claimed the websites not only facilitated illegal access to copyrighted films, but also shielded their identities using domain privacy services to evade detection.
The court further directed internet service providers across India to immediately block access to the 56 websites. PTI UK AMK AMK
