Ramesh Taurani Says Vashu Bhagnani Is 'Spreading Misinformation' on Chunnari Chunnari: 'We Are the Song's Lawful Owners'

The makers say they legally own the recreated songs and call Vashu Bhagnani’s allegations a smear campaign as the film keeps its June 5 release date.

  • On Wednesday, producer Ramesh Taurani and Tips Industries Ltd issued a statement denying allegations by Vashu Bhagnani of Pooja Entertainment, maintaining they legally own songs Chunnari Chunnari and Ishq Sona Hai while confirming Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai remains on track for June 5 release.
  • Bhagnani claimed at a Friday press conference that Taurani and Tips no longer have rights to use songs from his film Biwi No 1, asserting he sold only audio rights to Tips Music while video rights remain with Pooja Entertainment.
  • Taurani's statement emphasized their 1995 partnership, stating they 'generously offered' Bhagnani a 50 percent stake in Coolie No, while noting the matter is now sub judice and represents their only statement on the dispute.
  • At Saturday's trailer launch in Mumbai, Taurani assured media that 'everything has been sorted,' but Bhagnani rejected the claim in a self-made video, denying any discussion resolved the legal dispute.
  • The film is scheduled for June 5 release despite ongoing legal action, with Bhagnani framing the dispute as an ethical industry matter while Taurani's team questioned why he filed suit in Bihar, over 2,000 kilometers from Mumbai.
