Sir,
Apropos the news item ‘Shreya Ghoshal’s crooning leaves audience wanting for more’ (SOM dated Oct. 7), it raises a pertinent issue about potential copyright infringement if the show were to be webcast. Why is there no established copyright for Nada Habba celebrations with the State Government?
After substantial payments are made to the star performers, their contracts often include various hooks and disclaimers. This situation sadly tarnishes the authentic fervour and spirit of Dasara for the public.
Given that the venue is quite remote, those who might have experienced the ‘Yuva Dasara Energy’ through a webcast are now deprived of that opportunity. It seems that copyrights have taken precedence over Nada Habba — and copyrights win!?
