Exclusive-India's Zee sues Nykaa over alleged copyright misuse of songs on Instagram reels
"Zee argued it has a licensing agreement with Meta Platforms that allows individuals to use its music in Instagram posts for non-commercial use, but said Nykaa had used several of Zee's copyrighted songs in reels to promote products to millions of followers."
"Short-video formats have become a key advertising tool for brands on social media platforms like Meta's Instagram, often featuring popular Hindi songs as background music."
"In a brief hearing on Thursday, Nykaa's lawyer told the court that the 12 links flagged by Zee had been taken down, according to a court order which has not previously been reported."
Zee Entertainment filed a lawsuit against Nykaa in the Delhi High Court for allegedly using its copyrighted songs in Instagram reels for product promotion. Zee claims it has a licensing agreement with Meta Platforms for non-commercial use of its music. The lawsuit seeks $210,000 in damages. Nykaa's lawyer stated that the flagged links had been removed as per a court order. The case is scheduled for a hearing on May 26.
