The song "Wada karo nahi chhodo ge mera saath" from the movie "Aa gale
lag ja" directed by none other than R D Burman which was released in
1973 is very similar to the initial tune of "Song For My Father" by
Horace Silver (1964).
Also, the opening bass piano notes for this piece were in turn
borrowed from "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" by Steely Dan, while the
opening horn riff was borrowed by Stevie Wonder for his song "Don't
You Worry 'Bout a Thing".

Good lead... Many Indian composers are being sued and will face the music shortly for their infringements in the past... The producer and publishers of this song will be sued by the estate of Horace Silver for moral rights, up to date accounts on royalties earned and made to pay royalty with uptodate interest... The estate of RD Burman can also be impleaded in this case for contribution and declaration that Horace Silver is the author of the musical work... IPRS and PPL and other royalty collection societies in the world can be injuncted by the court from disbursing any further royalties on this song to anyone pending the final disposal of the case..

The basic chord progression, the bass guitar riffs and even the tune of Wada Karo was based on Horace Silver's sound recording.. It is definitely not a honest or concurrent musical composition of R.D Burman. Based on a print out of the musical notations of the guitar riffs, chords and the general pattern infringement can be proved.
