Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has run into legal controversy after Trimurti Films reportedly filed a lawsuit against Aditya Dhar’s production house over the use of the popular song Oye Oye. The dispute centres around alleged copyright infringement, with the production banner claiming that proper permissions were not obtained before incorporating the track into the film.
The song Oye Oye, originally featured in the 1989 film Tridev, remains a widely recognised and culturally significant track. Trimurti Films, which holds rights associated with the song, has raised objections to its usage in Dhurandhar 2, stating that the filmmakers did not follow due licensing procedures.
According to reports, the legal notice seeks clarity on how the track was used in the film and demands appropriate action, potentially including compensation or removal of the content. The issue has sparked discussions within the industry about the complexities of music rights, especially when dealing with iconic songs that carry legacy value.
So far, the makers of Dhurandhar 2 have not publicly responded in detail to the allegations. However, the controversy comes at a time when the film is enjoying strong box office performance and significant audience attention. The timing of the lawsuit has only intensified conversations around the film, adding another layer to its already high-profile run.
Industry insiders note that such disputes are not uncommon, particularly with remixes, recreations, or reuse of classic tracks. However, given the scale of Dhurandhar 2, the case is likely to attract closer scrutiny. Legal experts suggest that the outcome will depend on existing agreements, rights ownership clarity, and whether due permissions were secured.
Despite the ongoing legal developments, the film continues to draw audiences, with its performances and storytelling driving its success. Whether the controversy impacts its theatrical run remains to be seen, but it has certainly brought attention to the importance of intellectual property rights in modern filmmaking.
