Legendary composer Ilaiyaraaja on Friday told the Madras High Court that his collaborations with film producers and creative partners have always been on a principal-to-principal basis, and never as an employee or under a ‘work for hire’ arrangement, The Times of India (TOI) reported.
The music maestro has filed a petition against Sony Music Entertainment India Pvt Ltd, seeking to restrain it from exploiting his compositions in more than 300 films across digital platforms, including YouTube, Apple Music, and Amazon.
