On February 3, 2026, the Delhi High Court granted former Indian Revenue Service officer Sameer Wankhede the liberty to pursue his defamation suit against the Netflix series The Ba***ds of Bollywood in a competent court in Mumbai, after holding that the national capital court lacks territorial jurisdiction to hear the matter.

Amaal Mallik exposes the harsh economics of Bollywood music: “‘Sooraj Dooba hai’ earned Rs. 60–70 crores, I got almost nothing”

Composer-singer Amaal Mallik has once again brought the spotlight on the long-standing issues plaguing the Hindi film music industry, particularly the lack of fair remuneration, ownership, and credit for composers and lyricists. In a candid interview with Pinkvilla, Amaal spoke at length about how artists continue to suffer despite creating commercially successful music. Reflecting on one of his biggest hits, ‘Sooraj Dooba Hai’ from the 2014 musical Roy, Amaal revealed the stark imbalance between the revenue earned and what composers actually receive. “It earned Rs. 60–70 crore for the label, and I got nothing except publishing rights, which are negligible, not even close to Rs. 1 crore," he said. Emphasising why ownership matters, he added, “I want to make money to help people. That can only happen if I have rights or equal rights. Film music doesn’t give you that." Opening up about his personal journey, Amaal shared how financial stability came late despite years of succe...
