1 year ago0

The highly anticipated Housefull 5 is gearing up to be another laughter riot, with Sajid Nadiadwala and Akshay Kumar reuniting for the fifth installment of the comedy franchise. Directed by Tarun Mansukhani, the film is set to kick off its production in late August with a London schedule followed by an exciting cruise-based shoot. The core cast includes Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Sanjay Dutt, Nana Patekar, and Abhishek Bachchan. Another addition to the team is Fardeen Khan, as per a report by Pinkvilla. This marks a reunion of the trio of Akshay, Fardeen, and Sajid Nadiadwala after their blockbuster Heyy Babyy.

“After Heyy Babyy, the trio of Akshay Kumar, Fardeen Khan, and Sajid Nadiadwala is coming together for Housefull 5,” revealed a source close to the development to the publication. “It’s a fun-filled role for Fardeen and the actor is also excited to work again with Akshay after their soon-to-be-released Khel Khel Mein. There were multiple contenders for the role in question, including Arjun Rampal, and it’s Fardeen Khan who is now ready to make an entry in the world of Housefull,” the source added. Interestingly, Fardeen is also starring in Khel Khel Mein alongside Akshay Kumar.

While the male ensemble is complete, the search for the leading ladies is underway. The makers are eyeing top-tier actresses to complement the star-studded cast. The film is set to undergo a significant transformation, with the comic chaos unfolding on a cruise ship. “It’s a comic thriller, where one episode brings the house down inside a cruise. The idea is to introduce a new flavor of comedy with Housefull 5,” the source informed.

With an ambitious shoot schedule extending from August to November 2024, the makers are aiming for a June 6, 2025, release. Before diving into Housefull 5, Akshay Kumar is expected to wrap up a 20-day schedule for Welcome To The Jungle in Mumbai and Kashmir.

Ilaiyaraaja gets Rs. 60 lakh in legal battle against Manjummel Boys for unauthorized use of his song: Report

1 year ago0

Veteran music composer Ilaiyaraaja claimed compensation from the team behind the blockbuster Malayalam film Manjummel Boys for unauthorized use of his iconic song ‘Kanmani Anbodu’. In May 2024, Ilaiyaraaja sent a legal notice to the producers, accusing them of using his 1991 hit song ‘Kanmani Anbodu’ from the Tamil film Gunaa without his permission.

This song, originally picturized on Kamal Haasan in the famous Guna caves, holds a special place in the hearts of many fans. According to reports, Ilaiyaraaja demanded a hefty compensation of Rs. 2 crore, citing the song’s extensive use in Manjummel Boys at a critical juncture, significantly contributing to the movie’s success. Despite the initial demand, the legal battle concluded with Ilaiyaraaja receiving Rs. 60 lakh in compensation. According to a report in Money Control, the negotiation process was intense, with the producers – Soubin Shahir, Babu Shahir, and Shawn Antony – meeting the composer in person to discuss the matter. The producers reportedly found the compensation demand unreasonable, but an agreement was reached after prolonged discussions.

The song ‘Kanmani Anbodu’ was used extensively especially at a pivotal moment in the film, thereby elevating the scene. The song’s immense popularity after the film’s release and its use in promotions further justified Ilaiyaraaja’s demand for compensation. However, the producers felt the amount was too high and engaged in intense negotiations before settling the matter.

As reported by LiveLaw, Ilaiyaraaja asserted that merely crediting him in the title cards did not equate to obtaining permission, license, or consent for using his musical work. He emphasized that the unauthorized commercial exploitation of his work without payment of royalty or license fee was a legal violation. “Even though the makers credited me in the title cards, it does not substitute for my permission/license/consent for using the musical work,” he stated. He further underscored that his rights as the owner of the musical work are protected under the Copyrights Act 1957.
