Ever wondered why everyone is jumping into the film making business despite you seeing films flopping left right and center? Well that's because a producer has now got 78 various rights pertaining to his film that can be sold. So now even if his film is declared a super flop on its release day, he still has enough means to get a lot of his money back!

But at the same time it is also a reality that in spite of so many different avenues only a handful of producers get an opportunity to cash in on them. The main culprits are the middle men who ruin a lot of negotiations for petty commission and the lack of knowledge and proper guidance by the film's legal representatives.

Following is the list of rights of a film that can be sold by a producer:–

(1) 16mm and all reducible sizes; (2) Airline Rights; (3) Airport Rights; (4) Audio CD Rights;

(5) Audio Rights; (6) Cable TV Rights; (7) Car Rights; (8) Cassettes Rights;

(9) CCTV Rights; (10) Clipping and Songs Rights; (11) Commercial and Non commercial;

(12) Communication Rights; (13) Computer Floppy Rights; (14) Convergence Rights;

(15) DBS Rights; (16) Defense Rights; (17) Dialogues Rights; (Yes, they better be original)

(18) Digital TV Rights; (19) Disc Tapes Rights; (20) DTH Rights;

(21) Dubbing Rights; (22) DVD Rights; (23) Entire World Rights; (24) Flying Rights; (For the producer to come out with flying colours, we think)

(25) Free TV Rights; (26) High Definition Rights; (27) Home Video Rights;

(28) Hotel Rights; (29) I.P. TV Rights;
