The song by Akon featuring Kareena Kapoor was leaked online a few months back. Agni had used the song during the fourth Amrita Rao had walked the ramp.
T-Series, which has the rights of the song, has sent a legal notice to the brand asking for a compensation of Rs 2 crore. Bhushan Kumar, head of T-Series, told Mid Day: "Yes, we have sent a legal notice to Agni for using our unreleased song without prior permission. It is an illegal thing to do. We are moving court and suing them for about Rs 2 crore. One needs to get a license to use any song for a show. However, for an unreleased song you cannot even obtain a license."
A source from SRK's Red Chillies Entertainment told the tabloid: "SRK was livid when he learnt that the unreleased number has been used by the brand. The scratch version of the song was leaked on the internet a few months ago, which was probably picked up by the jewellery brand. It is a very careless mistake. Surely they knew that the song requires license."
