Comedian Kunal Kamra alleged that T-Series restricted the visibility of his stand-up special, "Naya Bharat: A Comedy Special," on YouTube over copyright claims. Kamra argued that his parody falls under fair use as he didn’t use original lyrics or instrumentals. This follows his satirical song mocking Maharashtra Deputy CM Eknath Shinde, which led to vandalism at his show and a defamation complaint. Kamra has been summoned by Mumbai police but refuses to apologize, defending his right to political satire. The controversy has ignited a debate on free speech and artistic freedom in India.
