dc.description.abstractTo critically analyse the scope of author’s special rights under Section 57 of the Indian Copyright Act 1957 and to examine the judicial interpretation of the standard of “prejudice to honour or reputation” from Mannu Bhandari judgement (1987) to the present jurisprudence. To evaluate the extent to which the judicial expansion of personality rights jurisprudence in India has affected the protection of transformative expression beyond the work-specific framework of author’s special rights under the Copyright Act 1957. To examine the structural limitations of Section 52, particularly the absence of an express parody and satire exception, and to assess the impact of interlocutory injunctions on the space available for transformative expression within the Indian copyright regime. To propose statutory and judicial measures that could effectively address the legal challenges surrounding transformative expression within the Indian copyright regime.
