Jasleen Royal files copyright suit against Guru Randhawa and T-Series over unauthorised use of music

Guru Randhawa is a big name in the Punjabi entertainment world. He is a singer, songwriter and composer, whose songs often prove to be chartbusters. He is known for songs like 'Lahore', 'Patola', 'High Rated Gabru' etc. Troubles seem to be brewing for the famous singer. Recently, singer Jasleen Royal has filed a copyright-related suit against him.

Jasleen has filed a suit in the Bombay High Court against T-Series, lyricist Raj Ranjodh and singer Guru Randhawa over the copyright of her music. According to a statement, the singer has accused them of unauthorised use of her musical compositions in the song All Right from the album 'G Thing'. The statement said that Jasleen had created some original musical compositions in the year 2022 for the promotional events of 'Runway 34' starring Ajay Devgan. These compositions were shared with lyricist Raj Ranjodh through audio-video calls and messages. Later these compositions were included in the scratch version of the song.

Guru Randhawa was approached for this song. However, Jasleen did not like the song recorded by him, due to which everyone could not join for this song. Jasleen had all the rights to this music. In the year 2023, Jasleen realised that her original compositions have been used in the song 'All Right' released by T-Series. Guru Randhawa has given his voice to this song. The singer has filed a lawsuit for using her original musical compositions without her consent and not giving her credit. According to the statement issued, the lawsuit claims copyright infringement and violation of moral rights. Jasleen's lawyers have obtained an interim order from the court, in which T-Series will have to remove the song from all streaming platforms. Raj Ranjodh and Guru Randhawa are also prohibited from using the song in any way.
