Stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra is currently in the headlines for the viral video on Maharashtra's Deputy CM Eknath Shinde. The comedian mocked the Deputy CM by singing two lines (Meri nazar se tum dekho to Gaddar nazar aaye), in which he called Mr. Shinde a Gaddar (traitor), and he isn't backing down from his statement. However, after the video went viral, music channel T-Series issued a copyright strike on the video, claiming that he did not obtain the channel's permission to use the tune of the famous song.
T-Series sent a copyright infringement notice to Kamra's channel and blocked his monetization. A spokesperson from T-Series stated, "Mr. Kunal Kamra has not obtained any authorization or approval for the use of the underlying musical work in the song; hence, the content has been blocked for infringement of composition rights."

Parody & Satire comes under fair use Legally.
I haven’t used the lyrics or the original instrumental of the song.
If you take this video down every cover song/dance video can be taken down.
Creators please take a note of it.

Angry and frustrated, Kamra took to his Twitter/X handle to express his anger and disappointment. He wrote, "Hello @TSeries, stop being a stooge. Parody and satire come under fair use legally. I haven’t used the lyrics or the original instrumental of the song. If you take this video down, every cover song or dance video can be taken down. Creators, please take note of this. Having said that, every monopoly in India is nothing short of Mafia, so please watch or download this special before it’s taken down. FYI - T-Series, I stay in Tamil Nadu."
