Ilaiyaraaja faces setback in ‘En Iniya Pon Nilave’ copyright case; Delhi High Court upholds rights over iconic song

The Delhi High Court upheld an interim injunction favoring Saregama India Limited, ruling that composer Ilaiyaraaja could not assign rights to lyrics or sound recordings of “En Iniya Pon Nilave.” The court clarified that while Ilaiyaraaja retains copyright over the musical composition, this does not extend to the lyrics or the sound recording, which Saregama validly acquired.
