Humanoid Robo

Posted on by Rudrajyoti Nath Ray

Aarur Tamilnadan sought a declaration: ‘Enthiran‘ is an infringing copy of Aarur’s ‘Jugiba‘, a story about a Humanoid Robo. ‘Jugiba‘ was published by ‘Iniya Udayam‘ in April, 1996.

A film has a wide field, a big background. A film if by and large is a copy, violation of copyright may be said to be proved [R.G. Anand v. M/s. Delux Films, (1978 ) 4 SCC 118]. Aarur failed to prove, ‘Enthiran‘ is a pirated version of ‘Jugiba‘.

– Hon’ble Justice S. Sounthar of Hon’ble High Court of Madras, Aarur Tamilnadan v. S. Sankar, [C.S. No. 914 of 2010] decided on 15.06.2023.

'The Last Word' seeks to include not only wise and witty sayings but also curiosities. These words are not of obligation but of delight. I am not alone in my refusal to believe, law is tedious. For all who escaped these percipient eyes, mea culpa maxima. History, after all, has many cunning passages, contrived corridors and issues.
