  • Prevention of Copyright Infringement of Cinematograph Films
    Winter Issue 2017 ILI Law Review Vol. II JOHN DOE ORDERS: PREVENTION OF COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT OF CINEMATOGRAPH FILMS Aadya Chawla Abstract Section 55 of the Copyright Act, 1957 entitles the owner of a copyright to obtain civil remedies for infringement of their copyright. While interim orders are granted very often under Order 39 Rules 1 and 2 of CPC, 1908, the Indian judiciary has in the past decade or so granted several John Doe/Ashok Kumar orders to protect copyright holders against unidentified or possible future infringers. This paper aims to study the need and legal basis for such orders as well as the jurisprudence that has evolved around them over the years. In light of Bombay High Court’s recent order criticizing the liberal usage of John Doe Orders by Indian courts for cinematograph films1, the debate between competing goals of preventing piracy on the one hand and protecting Internet freedom on the other has come back to the forefront. This paper will therefore also analyze the several judicially developed safeguards that limit the broad sweep of John Doe orders to prevent arbitrary blocking of legitimate content.

  • Dishoom Download Torrent
    Dishoom 1 / 3 L'unica speranza che ho avuto con Dishoom è stata Akshaye Khanna. Questo doveva essere il suo film di ritorno e non vedevo l'ora di vedere il tipo di presenza che aveva in alcuni dei suoi film precedenti, in particolare Humraaz, poiché aveva un ruolo negativo in quello. Ahimè! Tutte le mie speranze sono state sgonfiate. Tranne poche battute leggermente forti, Khanna non ha nulla di sostanziale da fare in Dishoom nonostante sia il principale antagonista del film. Non ha scene d'azione o di lotta con i due protagonisti principali del film, John Abraham e Varun Dhawan, forse perché due muscolosi somari come Abraham e Dhawan picchiano un attore come Khanna (che, penso, ha ancora una certa credibilità a causa di alcuni dei suoi film in passato) sarebbe stato terribilmente inguardabile. Il dishoom, ho sentito, è stato salvato da sole due persone: Varun Dhawan e Akshay Kumar in un'apparizione speciale. Varun Dhawan ripete il suo simpatico e giocherellone attore della porta accanto da Main Tera Hero e Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania e, credetemi, eccelle. L'intero film è tollerabile solo a causa di Varun Dhawan.Il suo sorriso da cherubino, i suoi tempi comici, tutto sommato per creare un carattere accattivante che mi ha fatto sorridere anche mentre uscivo dal multisala pensando al personaggio di Dhawan mentre tutti gli altri erano svaniti dalla mia mente. Per quanto riguarda l'aspetto speciale di Akshay Kumar, mi chiedo se il suo modo di interpretare un personaggio gay sia un passo progressista per Bollywood. In ogni caso, Akshay Kumar mi ha appena affascinato.
