Files in public domain featuring actor Madhubala

[edit]

Post-1945 images (photos/film stills) from India, which were certainly still in copyright in India at the URAA cut-off date of 1996. Therefore their US term was extended until 95 years after their first publication.

These files subsequently went on to be in public domain in India, since the expiration of copyright in India is 50 years for work published before 1958 (which means, files dating from 1946 to 1957 came in public domain in India from 1996 to 2007) and 60 years for work published from 1958 (which means, files published in 1958 came in public domain in India from 2018, those published in 1959, from 2019 and so on) BUT they continue to be under copyright in the US, since the duration for copyright in the US is of 95 years since the date of publication. Files from India from the year 1946, can only be in public domain in the US from 2042, by earliest)
