Oye Oye was everywhere when the film, Tridev, released in 1989. Today, over three decades later, the chartbuster has landed filmmaker Aditya Dhar and his massive hit Dhurandhar: The Revenge in legal trouble. Last week, Tridev filmmaker Rajiv Rai filed a lawsuit against Dhar’s banner B62 Studios for allegedly using his song in the movie without seeking his permission. “After I saw the movie and my song in it, I was in shock. I filed [the legal suit] now because it takes time to move the court,” said Rai, on a call with mid-day.
