Arjun is a well-known writer. In 2015, he wrote an original novel titled "The Silent River". The book was first published in India in 2016. In 2018, a film company called Meera Films Pvt. Ltd. took written permission from Arjun to make a movie based on his novel. However, their agreement did not clearly mention satellite broadcasting rights (such as showing the film on television). In 2023, another producer released a film titled "Quiet Waters". Arjun claims that this new film is very similar to his novel. According to him, not only the main idea but also the storyline, characters and sequence of events have been copied. Further, a broadcasting company telecast the film made by Meera Films but did not pay any royalty to Arjun. The company claims that it has legal rights to broadcast the film.

Arjun wants to file suit seeking relief for copyright infringement. Based on above facts, answer the following with legal provision of Copyright Act, 1957: What is Copyright?
