Legal Clash Over Bollywood Hits: Animal and Kabir Singh in Streaming Dispute

Two popular Bollywood movies, Animal and Kabir Singh, are caught up in a legal dispute over streaming rights and profit sharing. The disagreement has escalated to the point where the case is now in the courts. Cine One Studio, the production company behind Kabir Singh, has filed a lawsuit against T-Series, the production company responsible for Animal.

Animal, featuring Ranbir Kapoor, saw significant box office success after its release on December 1, 2003. Given its profitability, T-Series, the production company, expressed interest in releasing the movie on an Over-The-Top (OTT) platform.

Originally scheduled for an OTT release on January 26th, Animal encountered obstacles from the production company behind Kabir Singh. Alleging a pre-existing agreement, Cine One Studio claimed that 35 percent of the profits was to be shared between the two production companies. Despite Animal’s box office triumph, T-Series has reportedly not honored this profit-sharing agreement.

In response to these claims, Cine One Studio, the producer of Kabir Singh, took legal action against T-Series. T-Series countered by stating that Animal was released over a month and a half ago, emphasizing their commitment to honoring the agreed-upon terms.

The matter has escalated to the point where the Delhi court has scheduled a hearing. This development raises uncertainty about the OTT release of the movie Animal. Viewers are hopeful for a swift resolution, allowing Animal to be released on the OTT platform soon.
