As per the early reports and latest speculations, ‘Gabbar Singh’ might stand as Rs.100 Crores movie proving the stamina of Tollywood and the value of Mega Camp. In tune with the same reports, the new Amendments made to Copyrights Act has armored the writers, lyricists and music composers to get their share of payment based on the current market price when every time their work is repeatedly used. 

If such is the case, the ‘Antakshari’ scene of ‘Gabbar Singh’ which used nearly 10 to 12 old compositions has to pay the writers in accordance. In fact, the amendment states of sharing nearly 14% of collections between the writers and music composers which means out of the total collection of Rs.100 Crores by ‘Gabbar Singh,’ nearly Rs.14 Crores should be shared between the lyricists. However, producer Bandla Ganesh Babu says this as not necessary while Writers Guild is asking for a mere Rs.14 Lakhs to settle the issue.
