Did ‘Lovely' copy the housefly from 'Eega'? Rajamouli's team sends legal notice to the Malayalam film
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) The Mathew Thomas starrer fantasy film 'Lovely' is facing heat after being accused of copying the iconic housefly character from SS Rajamouli's cult Telugu hit 'Eega' (Makkhi in Hindi). As reported by On Manorama, the controversy erupted when the production house behind 'Eega', sent a legal notice to Lovely's team, alleging that the housefly in their film is strikingly similar to the one painstakingly created for 'Eega'. A fly too familiar? The legal notice, which was sent by Neo Juris LLP on June 17, claims that the 'Lovely' team used the housefly character without permission, violating copyright. According to them, the fly in 'Eega' wasn't just any digital bug — it was carefully crafted using advanced VFX, macro photography, and detailed studies of how real flies look and behave. The filmmakers of 'Eaga' believe that Lovely's fly borrows heavily from that design, right down to its appearance and movements. What are the makers saying? So far, the Lovely team hasn't issued a public response. But if the allegations are proven, the film could face serious consequences. Talking to the media, the 'Lovely' director claimed that the team has enough proof regarding the creation of the fly in the Mathew Thomas starrer. He also expressed his disappointment when 'Eega' production house claimed that the animated character's idea was stolen, while months were spent to create it. Actor Unnimaya Prasad's face was used to motion capture the housefly in 'Lovely', as per the director, who also said that the fly in his film is female, which contradicts the gender of the fly in the Nani starrer. Lovely - Official Teaser Streaming starts, controversy follows Interestingly, 'Lovely' began streaming on OTT on June 20, just days after the legal notice was issued. While the movie has been getting attention on OTT, this legal twist could complicate things. Reportedly, the notice asks the makers to immediately stop using or showing the character, whether it's in the film, posters, trailers, or any platform, including digital, theatrical, satellite, or DVD formats.

'Lovely' OTT: When and where to watch Mathew Thomas' fantasy film
Malayalam fantasy drama Lovely, starring Mathew Thomas in the lead, is now available for streaming. The film, which hit theatres on May 16, 2025, had a relatively quiet box office run but is now poised for wider appreciation following its OTT debut on June 20. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now A quirky plot with a talking fly Directed and written by Dileesh Karunakaran, Lovely tells the unusual story of Bony, a young man whose dreams of settling in Canada are derailed when he's forced to take up a government job—one held previously by his late father. The movie tells Bony's bond with a talking fly. Although the film had a good concept, it failed to shine at the box office. Supporting cast and performances Alongside Mathew Thomas, the film features notable performances by Sivaangi Krishnakumar, Manoj K Jayan, Aswathy Manoharan, and Prasanth Murali. The actors lend charm and depth to a story that balances whimsy with grounded emotions. The movie is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video. Lovely - Official Teaser ETimes review for the movie read,"On the technical side, while the CGI is commendable, the 3D feels almost unnecessary—except for the scenes involving the flying eecha. Sivaangi Krishnakuar's voice didn't work well and fails to help connect with Lovely. Lovely might be worth a one-time watch, given that it's experimental at its core, and Aashiq Abu's cinematography makes it aesthetically pleasing. Still, the film lacks the "wow" factor needed to truly hook its audience. " On the other hand, Mathew Thomas's previous outing was the comedy film 'Bromance' which received good reviews from the audiences and turned out to be a superhit. The film is also available on OTT.
