Dr. Kulneet Suri, Senior Director, IMS Noida, spoke about how Entertainment Law is a demanding career that requires a solid understanding of contract law, corporate law, finance, tort, bankruptcy law, immigration law, tax law, labour law, and intellectual property law, as well as applying the principles to the interactions between players in the entertainment industry.It also covers pieces of legislation regulating media of all types, such as television, film, music, publishing, advertising, etc. Much of the work of an entertainment lawyer is transaction-based and includes drafting contracts, negotiation, and mediation. This may lead to litigation or arbitration.
