Abstract

The thesis investigates the relationship between copyright law and performers' rights in the entertainment industries of India and Australia. It explores the current statutory relationship between the two, as well as the rights of performers versus those of authors. By conducting 19 semi-structured interviews with actors, singers, and lawyers in the music and film industries, the study highlights the inadequacies of the existing performers' rights regime and evaluates the possibility of extending property rights to performers using theoretical frameworks. The research aims to promote equitable copyright laws by expanding performers' rights, and its findings are relevant to policymakers and copyright legal scholars worldwide.
