In a significant move to protect intellectual property rights, the Delhi High Court has passed an injunction restraining the unauthorised use of content from the iconic Hindi film Andaz Apna Apna. The court’s order covers a wide range of material — including characters, dialogues, images, and audio-visual content — associated with the cult classic.
The directive prohibits various parties, including unknown and unnamed individuals, from hosting, streaming, sharing, or making available for download any content that is identical to, adapted from, or derivative of the film. This also includes AI-generated content that references or mimics elements of the movie.
