KRISHIKA LULLA vs SHYAM VITHALRAO DEVKATTA

The Supreme Court upheld the Bombay High Court's refusal to quash the complaint under Section 63 of the Copyright Act, 1957, along with Sections 406 and 420 of the IPC. The Court established that a prima facie case for copyright infringement can arise from the unauthorized use of a title, even if the complainant has not seen the film in question. The Court held that the appellants' film title 'Desi Boyz' could potentially infringe upon the complainant's registered synopsis titled 'Desi Boys', warranting further investigation into the merits of the complaint.
