Reshma’s timeless song ruined in Bollywood plagiarized version
Bollywood has once again been accused of copying a classic Pakistani song, and this time, Kriti Sanon is at center of the debate. A song from her latest film ‘Do Patti’ is being compared to the iconic Akhiyaan Nu Rehn De originally sung by the late Reshma.
The lyrics of the remake are written by Kausar Munir, and the song is sung by Shilpa Rao. However, many fans feel that the magic of Reshma’s original has been lost.
Reshma had sung some iconic songs such as Laal Meri, Hai O Rabba Nahion Lagda Dil Mera, and Lambi Judai. She died in November 2013 in Lahore after suffering from throat cancer since many years.
Currently, Kriti Sanon upcoming film is Do Patti directed by Shashanka Chaturvedi and written by Kanika Dhillion.
The film will be released on October 25, 2024, on Netflix.
Do Patti’s cast includes Tanvi Azmi, Brijendra, Kala, Kajol, Kriti and Shaheer.
