Singer Jasleen Royal has filed a lawsuit against label T-Series, lyricist Raj Ranjodh and singer Guru Randhawa at the Bombay High Court. According to a statement, the lawsuit names T-Series, Raj Ranjodh, and Randhawa for unauthorised use of her musical works in the song named All Right from the album G Thing.

Guru Randhawa

The statement read that Jasleen created the original music compositions in 2022 for a potential track in the promotional events of the Ajay Devgn-starrer Runway 34. These were shared with Raj over audio-video calls and messages, and subsequently incorporated into a scratch version of the song. Guru, who is known for songs such as Patola, High Rated Gabru, Soorma and Ishaare Tere, sang it. However, it did not please Jasleen, leading to a fallout.

In 2023, Jasleen realised that the song All Right, released by T-Series and featuring vocals by Randhawa, embodied her original musical works without her consent, and without any credit being given to her. Jasleen, who is known for tracks such as Din Shagna Da, Heeriye, and Nachde Ne Saare, has now taken a decision to take action to protect her intellectual property rights.

According to the issued statement, the lawsuit asserts copyright infringement and violation of moral rights. Jasleen’s attorneys have secured an interim order from the court, requiring T-Series to remove the song from all streaming platforms. Raj Ranjodh and Guru Randhawa have been prohibited from exploiting the song in any manner.
