Adlabs seeks halt on third-party rights related to film
Adlabs has lodged a complaint against producer Vishal Rana and Echelon Productions, alleging that Tu Hai Meri Kiran infringes on the copyright of their original films Caller (2011) and Call (2019). The company has previously sent legal notices to Echelon and has now approached the IFTPC, reported ToI.
