The family of Satyajit Ray on Wednesday hailed the Delhi High Court order recognising the film maestro as the first copyright owner for his film Nayak as a “welcome development” in the field of rights over creative content.
Ray’s filmmaker son Sandip Ray said that he considered the verdict as a vindication of his father’s rights over his own creative content. “The court’s order is a welcome development,” he said.
The order, he said, would help in bolstering the creative rights of a filmmaker or a writer on his/her works and help in resolving future disputes.
