Popeye, Tintin to enter public domain in '25

The two classic comic characters, who first appeared in 1929, are among the intellectual properties becoming public domain in the United States on January 1.

But they include a deep well of canonical works whose 95-year copyright maximums will expire. And the Disney icon's public domain presence expands.

For being a taskmaster, Murugesan, a daily wage labourer-turned coach, is nicknamed the 'Dangal father' by Thulasimathi and her younger sister Kiruttigha.
