Zee is all set to take on T-Series with its own music label

Sonu Nigam, who has been fighting the royalty battle for a long time now, sounds relieved. He says, "For a musician like me, who is loved and appreciated by people, it is difficult to accept a scenario where an autocratic, unrepentant set of people snatch away my songs and make others sing them. So this news is a breath of fresh air."

The new music label has apparently acquired music rights of a few films and this list could include Shah Rukh Khan starrer Happy New Year, Akshay Kumar starrer Holiday, and a film being made by Vashu Bhagnani.

Lyricist Sameer, who was present at the meeting, says, "Zee is reviving its music label and this is great for us, because they have promised to follow the new copyright law which will give singers royalty and performance rights."

but i guess this time the tables have turned as every single muscians is now a part of ISRA ...Indian singers rights associations they will stop working with t series if they get a company who makes legal contracts ...Bhusan kumar have did very bad to Sonu Nigam...Sonu was the only reason T series have survived and had good reputation after Gulshan Kumar death ...as every song of SAonu Nigam had T Series label and this bhusan use to beg sonu to sing for his label all his private abums Jaan, Yaad ,Dewana ,Kismat had T series label

Well if that happens T-series will bow down and finally agree to the singers and musicians because they can't lose the competition anyhow.
