Controversial Bollywood film titles

According to a report in Mid-day, the Delhi High Court has ordered the makers of the film, Badmashiyaan to refrain from any any promotional activities, following allegations of copyright infringement. It is also reported that the High Court has restrained the distribution and exhibition of the film's trailer after Multi Screen Media (MSM) and Kaleidoscope Entertainment Pvt Ltd claimed it to be a copy of the Korean film, Couples, on which their yet-to-be-released film Mango is based. However, the production house of the film Badmashiyaan, has claimed that the court has granted them relief on the basis that they have exclusive rights to the Hindi remake of Couples. Interestingly, the Korean film in question is itself a remake of the 2005 Japanese film, A Stranger of Mine. While Mango went on the floors in 2013, Badmashiyaan was filmed only last year. In the report, Vijay Gutte, producer of Badmaashiyaan, has said that they have not received any notice or court order from anyone and have been promoting the film since a month. Advocate Rizwan Siddiquee, who represents VRG Motion Pictures that has produced Badmaashiyaan, also commented in the Mid-Day report that no notice was served or any claims were made for any alleged copyright infringement.
