Ajith’s film Good Bad Ugly was released in theaters this summer and became a box office hit. About a month later, it was made available on OTT platforms. However, Netflix has now stopped streaming the movie due to a copyright complaint from music composer Ilaiyaraaja.
Director Adhik Ravichandran used Ilaiyaraaja’s songs in the film without getting his permission. Because of this, Ilaiyaraaja took legal action. The court issued an interim order stopping the producers from showing or distributing Good Bad Ugly, citing unauthorized use of his music.
As a result, Netflix removed the film from its library. Ilaiyaraaja is known for being strict about copyright. In the past, he also filed a case against the makers of Manjummel Boys for using one of his songs without approval.
