plagiarism in indian film music
vr...@my-deja.com
Thanks for your support and encouragement. A lot of material is coming
in. But still not enough to nail the earlier composers. As regards to
my categorisation of plagiarisms, Ketan has written that plagiarisms
from Pakistan cannot be a category and he suggested (sarcastically)
that it should be plagiarism from SAARC. Now that’s quite a good idea,
because I was going to add that O haseena zulfon waali jaane jahaan
(teesri manzil rdb), Chhota sa ghar hoga(naukri Salil Chaudhary) and
kaancha re kaancha re (hrhk rdb) all are taken from Nepali folk tunes.
Another two categorisations that I thought of are
-Plagiarism by one music director of another Indian music director’s
work
-Plagiarism by one music director of his own earlier work in the same
language
Now don’t pounce on me for this classification, instances like Woh dil
kahaan se laaoon (Bharosa) by Ravi was redone by him as Dil mein kisi
ke pyaar ka (Ek Mahal Ho sapnon ka) ; Kabhi khud pe kabhi haalaat pe
(Jaidev-Humdono ) was redone by him as Ajeeba saaneha mujh par (Gaman).
Other such instances abound. I’ll keep mailing them as and when I
remember. Generally this happens after a music director reaches his or
her level of incompetence. Although you can’t quite call these
plagiarisms, but they are certainly needless repetitions. Probably
tautology would be a better word.
Responding to another comment that I am just throwing up numbers and
expecting the newsgroup to come up with the answers. Well no. Most of
these instances are cases where I have heard both the original and the
copy. However some instances are gleaned from interviews given by
musicians or their sons. It is just that since I haven’t heard the
original, I do not remember the exact wordings of the original songs
named in these interviews. Regarding the specific instance which
prompted Ketan to think thus; in a recent episode of Close-Up
Antakshari which featured both Indian and Pakistani artistes, one
Pakistani artiste sang the original version of Tumse Milke and it was
acknowledged by Annu Kapoor on stage that the Pakistani version was
indeed the original. I assure you that this is a serious effort and I
am only trying to be eclectic in the compilation of this list – and
filling up gaps in memories. As Shakespeare said in Hamlet, “more of
matter and less of art”. So we move on with the listing
* Dilli shahar mein mhaaro ghaaghro jo ghoomyo by Ila Arun from her
album Vote for Ghaaghra is a straight lift from Oh rembwe ike mahdo by
Dr. Alban
* Hum they who thi aur samaa rangeen by SDB in Chalti ka is inspired
from some English no by an artist called Tennessee something. (Please
help me fill up these blanks)
* Roop tera mastaana by SDB from Aaraadhna is inspired from a creation
in the Bhaatiyaali form of music
* Dewang Patel’s non-film Meri marzee is a lift from Dr. Alban’s Its My
life
* Dewang Patel’s Stop That from Gambler is a take off from Apache
Indian’s Chok There
* Saare ke saare from Parichay RDB is inspired from Do(e) a deer from
the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic Sound of Music
* Main teri hoon jaanam (Rajesh Roshan Khoon Bhari Maang) is a straight
lift from Vangelis Papathinassiou’s Oscar winning theme from the movie
Chariots of Fire
Rajesh Roshan plagiarises quite liberally from Vangelis. Other
instances don’t come to mind right away
His Chookar mere man ko from Yaaraana is supposed to be from a Rabindra
sangeet creation. Which one??
* Oye Oye from Tridev by Viju Shah is lifted from Rhythm is gonna get
you by Gloria Estefan
* Jeevan ke har mod par (Jhootha Kahin ka RDB) is supposed to be from a
Konkani folk tune
* Do lafzon kee hai dil ki kahaani (Great Gambler RDB ) is also from
some other source???
* Tere dar pe sanam (Anu Malik- Phir teri kahaani yaad aayi) is based
on Neele-2 ambar pe (Kalaakar-KA) which in turn is based on Illaya
Raja’s Tamil film song Ilaya Nila
* Hum tumse juda hokar (usha khanna- ek sapera ek lutera) is very
similar to sau baar janam lenge (ustaadon ke ustaad-ravi) at least in
the antaraa
* Jab se mili tose akhiyaan (Amaanat-Salil Chaudhary) and Aanke baanke
raaston pe dhoke liye jaate hain (Bhupen Hazaarika non-film) have the
same Assamese folk tune as the base
* Bahut diya dene waale ne (soorat aur seerat-roshan ) sounds very
similar to rajesh roshan’s tune in karan arjun (sooraj kab door gagan
se). Somebody said inheritance??!!
Now I must answer Mr. Prithviraj’s comment. This is what happens when
you are doing what Atal Behari Vajpayee calls “kahin kee eent kahin ka
roda, bhanumati ne kunba jodaa”. When I first listed that song as a
plagiarism, I put in the bracket (md probably hemant kumar ????) I was
looking for confirmation of the name of the md. (Alas, I got everything
but confirmation of the name of the md) To this ketan responded that if
the md was hemant it is not a plagiarism in the first place. And all I
did was acknowledge that he was right.
Another comment by Ketan was that the current crop of mds copy more
because they have access to mtv and the older crop cannot be convicted
till we have proof. As to the first part, the trade people always have
had and shall have access to the latest music. What mtv has done is
that it has given that access to common people. And as to the second
part of your comment- well proof is what we are looking for here,
aren’t we?
As to a pure raaga always being a pure raaga and thus it gives any
composer scope to “lift” a raaga, I don’t agree. Every raag has
a ‘pakad’ a chalan, a vaadi swar and a samvaadi swar etc. etc. It is a
basic framework within which you can compose using your creativity.
Remember all the earlier raagas have been invented by somebody, be it
Tansen or Thyagaraaja. Just because a couple of centuries separate two
compositions cannot make it a lesser plagiarism.
Well I am looking forward to your continued support and suggestions to
help me complete this endeavour. I will post a final corrected and
updated text of all these entries to this newsgroup. A copy of this
list (as a Word file) can also be separately e-mailed by me to anybody
desirous of having it. My e-mail id is vr...@rediffmail.com

written.

Boy you have some gall! And what makes you think that the MD was approaching the
incompetence levels just because he choose to re-use his own tune? There could
be many reasons why an MD chooses to re-use one of his own tunes, lack of time
to compose/record a new tune being just one legitimate reason or the producer
insisting that a hit tune of a previous movie be re-used in his new movie, if
both the producer and MD are the same pair. Roshan was hardly incompetent when
he chose to reuse his "Tera dil kahan hai" as "Rahen na rahen hum".

Serious effort for what? Just so that every time you hear a song you can run to
your database to check up and see if it has an original? Or just so that anytime
someone mentions a song you can promptly dismiss off that tune as having been
plagiarised and show off your knowledge? Is this just an academic exercise or is
there some purpose behind this? While your efforts at digging out the originals
might be worth some praise, so far your classifications seem less of matter and
more of (f)art.
>* Roop tera mastaana by SDB from Aaraadhna is inspired from a creation
>in the Bhaatiyaali form of music
Apprently the Hindi song is taken from one of SDB's own "bhatiyali form of
music" Bengali composition.
>Rajesh Roshan plagiarises quite liberally from Vangelis. Other

Then why make that statement that he re-uses Vangelis quite liberally? Are you
just quoting the article on him that I posted a few days back which said the
same thing?
>Another comment by Ketan was that the current crop of mds copy more

Not really. Even in England and the US, in the 50's, music of artistes from one
country was not readily available across the Atlantic in the other. Which is why
I am a little skeptical to believe that Western Music was as easily available in
India. When it was, yes the MD's might have copied the tunes, but I think the
instances of MD's copying tunes in the 40's-60's period is definitely going to
be fewer than in the 70's-90's period.

Then as I said earlier, sarcastically at that time but seriously now, why don't
you call even Tansen's and Thyagaraaja's works as copied. There are only 12
notes, so ultimate credit should go to the person who invented/devised these 12
notes, so what if only a few centuries separate the creator of these notes from
Tansen. Find out the guy who said that "Sa" has to be there in every raga/tune
and give him the credit.

You might want to break it down by the name of the composer and the name of the
movie besides your...uh..ahem...classifications. Just a suggestion.

mean the concept...the use of mnemonics for teaching the notes of music
has been around at least since the times of Tansen.
There are two versions of his song - "sapt suran teen graam" - one by
Saigal and the other by Manna De (from Tansen, 1943 & Sangeet Samrat
Tansen, 1963?) respectively.
The Saigal version gives the complete mnemonic
saa - sur SAAdho man
re - apane RAb ko chain
ga.ndhaar - taju GUmaan
madhyam - Moksha paavo
pancham - PArameshvar
dhaivat - DHAro dhyaan
nii - NIt din prabhuu charaN shiital aavo
much more meaningful, methinks, than the inane Do-Re-Mi or saare ke
saare.
So do we now go about nailing Oscar Hammerstein for stealing a 400 year
old idea?

This discussion on plagiarism can go on and on until the cows come home ! It
has been a favourite topic before but I am afraid nothing can be done to
avoid this. One might get some pleasure in abusing people like Anu Malik etc
but once again, they don't give a monkey's.
What I think we should do (and that may be more constructive) is do launch a
massive complaint against HMV for releasing the same songs from many Hindi
Films year after year over and over again. I wonder if anyone has compiled
some list which shows how many songs have been released again and again in
various cassettes and CDs. Now they have started their 'Golden Collection'
of the same old songs. This time they claim that they have 'digitally
cleaned' the songs, but if you listen to them they sound awful. They have
literally cleaned the music ! Obviously they did it without much expertise
and effort. Just to make quick bucks.
All in all I think HMV is guilty of cheating thousands of music lovers all
over the world (like you and I).
How about a massive complaint letter to our dearest Sanjeev Kohli at
HMV,Bombay who master minds the repetitive release of hundreds of cassettes
and CDs every few weeks ?
Any takers ? Any comments ?

I am a big fan of old hindi film music and my staple diet used to be
Bhoole bisrey geet on Vividh Bharti and Taameel-e-irshaad on the Urdu
Service of AIR. I also listen to oldies in Western Music. At times when
I listen to a number which has been brazenly plagiarised by some Indian
composer, I feel cheated. I have been going overboard singing paeans
about this or that composer’s originality and suddenly I discover
something which totally changes my viewpoint. So I wondered are we
unjustified in heaping encomiums on a Salil Chaudhary or a R D Burman,
as we might just be ignorant of their sins. Well to that extent my
endeavour goes beyond the mere academic interest. I want anybody who
reads this compilation to know the instances of plagiarisms and to draw
his own conclusions. Rather than be mislead by the so-called know-alls
who often cloak their ignorance by using strong views for or against
some artist. My effort is not to rile some composer. If SDB has done 89
films in Hindi and let us say a 1000 songs and 15 songs are
plagiarised; by enlisting those 15 you are in no way belittling that
composer. However if Bhappi Lahiri has done 400 films and say 4000
songs and 700 out of those are lifted, you are certainly making a
statement. But in the absence of hard facts, we can only talk thru out
hats.
What I have started will be complete only when we have solid hard data
about each composer. Such data unfortunately is not available right
now. If somebody has it I would really appreciate if he can post it
here. The RMIM archives are also far from complete as even composers
like SDB & Jaidev’s filmography is not available. Then how can you
expect filmographies of an SN Tripathi or an Iqbal Qureshi. After
reading some posts, I got the feeling that many people are very
judgemental. While I concede that the person being judgemental might be
very well aware of all the data, but if it is so why not share it with
others? So that we could also come up to their level. A proper approach
to document Hindi film music would begin with a list of movies since
1931 along with the names of their music directors. Only such a list
can be a triggering cue for people to genuinely search for songs,
listen to them and then form their opinions. I would be concentrating
my energies after this exercise in plagiarism to compile a filmography
of Jaidev. At times when I listen to numbers like Zaher deta hai mujhe
(Wohi Baat) or Saathi milta hai badi mushkil se (Ek Hans ka joda) or
Yeh wohi geet hai (maan jaaiye) or Raghuvar tumko (Ankahee) or Humaare
shahar me(jumbish), I feel aggrieved that Jaidev has got a raw deal in
this newsgroup. And probably its time to correct this anomaly.
But first things first and the task on hand right now is to compile a
list of elegant and un-elegant plagiarisms.

P.S.: And Ketan you have mentioned that Tera Dil kahaan by Roshan has
been reused by him as Rahein na rahein in Mamta. Could you let me know
the name of the film of Tera dil kahaan hai. I agree that Roshan died a
premature death and if that hadn’t happened, probably there wouldn’t
have been a composer called Rajesh Roshan. And no I didn’t read about
that Vangelis part from your post, I read it in one of Rajesh Roshan’s
interviews (from the first issue of a new music mag). And can you site
some more instances where you think the md hasn’t reached his loc and
still repeats himselves.
Vijay has written that ‘sare ke sare’ is not like ‘do re me’ w.r.t. the
tune. Sorry sir I do not agree. Though personally I like RDB’s version
more. Originals aren’t always better. Ask Darwin.
And BTW can anyone provide me the exact mukhda of the gaman song ajeeb
saneha by hariharan and also its meaning. And does anyone know where I
can get the cassette of Jumbish by Salaahuddin Parvez music by Jaidev.

OK..how and where do you see a similarity in the tune between the S.Of Music
song and the Parichay song? They have been sung in the same style but tune
similarity is very faint if at all.

Suddenly, using a thousand tricks, the enchanting eyes

Tossed and bewildered, like a flickering

I roam about in the fire of love;
Sleepless eyes, restless body,

In honour of the day I meet my beloved

-> I agree. The film Parichay is loosely based on the movie 'Sound of Music'. The style of the song is the same when they explain each note. But the tune is not at all similar. Are you including different-tune but same theme copying in plagiarism? You need a new category for this VRK :)

Here are a couple more...
Tarzan, my Tarzan... (from the hindi version of "Tarzan", sung by Alisha
IIRC, MD?) lifted from "99 Luftballoons" or "99 Red Balloons" by Nena.
The mukhda of "Aaja Sanam..." from "Chori Chori" (sic), MD=SJ, is very
similar to a western classical (actually sounds more like Italian/French
folk to me) tune they often play during the NBA games. Anyone know the
name of the original composition?

I had given this querry to Mr. Ashok, many months ago. Earlier,
another person had given the name of the film as: LORI and
someone else had mentioned the film as: MEHBOOB
Around 1968, a friend of mine in Bombay, had recorded this Plus
Qaidi's song (Mujh Se Pehli Si Mohabbat) on a reel tape. I
have the complete wordings and also the recording on tape /
Noor Jehan / Meri Pasand / Tape # 2 / EMI Pakistan.
I was just curious to find the name of the film, so that I
could comminicate with friends, who may be unaware of this
excellent gazal.
Thanks for the info.
