Thyrocare Technologies Ltd v. Thyro Laboratories

A.No.521 of 2020 in C.S.No.282 of 2020 A.No.521 of 2020 in C.S.No.282 of 2020 C.V.KARTHIKEYAN J, The first defendant has filed Caveat. Learned counsel for the plaintiff insists for an order of injunction to be granted as against the second defendant. It is the grievance of the learned counsel for the plaintiff that the movie "Vaalee" which was actually produced way back in the year 1999 by the first defendant had a strong element of the plaintiff's input by way of being the author of the story and also dialogue writing. The plaintiff claims that the first defendant though Producer, cannot assign any rights without notice to the plaintiff. It is understood that the first defendant had granted some rights to the second defendant. It is also pointed out by the learned counsel for the first defendant / caveator that the movie has been actually remade and has also been dubbed in Kannada language way back, nearly about 20 years ago.

2. In view of these facts it would only be prudent that notice is issued to the second defendant. The first defendant/Caveator had been served with all the relevant papers. Counter on behalf of the caveator / first defendant by 09.11.2020. 1/2 http://www.judis.nic.in
