Kahaani 2: SC quashes proceedings in copyright case against filmmaker Sujoy Ghosh

In a relief to filmmaker Sujoy Ghosh, the Supreme Court on Friday quashed the proceedings in a case alleging copyright infringement against him over his movie “Kahaani 2”, which was released in December 2016.

A bench of Justices P S Narasimha and Alok Aradhe said the proceedings instituted against Ghosh were “manifestly frivolous and vexatious”.

The bench set aside an order passed by the Jharkhand High Court on April 22 last year, refusing to quash the proceedings against the filmmaker.
