Karan Johar Sued For K3G

Aankhen team fall-out
Karan Johar, the director of 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham', learned something new recently - never use any copyrighted tunes without the permission of the owner, especially when the copyright belongs to an international company. Remember the background tune in K3G as Kareena Kapoor makes her entry? Apparentely, that tune is lifted from Geri Haliwell's hit number Raining Men, the rights for which are with music-company Virgin Records International. When Virgin Records learned of this plagiarism they filed a suit against Karan for using their track without permission. Karan was summoned to a London court where the matter is now believed to have been settled for Rs. 25 lakh. The grapewine has it that out of the total amount Virgin India too got 12 lakh
