Anand vs. Delux Films A.I.R. 1978 S.C. 1613 is a landmark judgment by the Supreme Court of India that helped in clarifying the scope of copyright infringement, particularly in relation to the reproduction of cinematographic works. This case revolves around the issue of unauthorized adaptation and copying of a work, raising significant questions about the extent of rights granted to the copyright holder and the actions that constitute infringement.

The defendant, Delux Films, was accused of reproducing parts of the film without the consent of the copyright holder. The dispute arose over the unauthorized exhibition and distribution of the film, as Delux Films had made a re-production of Shree 420 in a different language (Hindi) without the permission of Anand, who had obtained the exclusive copyright for the film in its original form.
