Pakistani singer, lyricist and composer Shuja Haider has filed a copyright claim. India’s Rashid Khan and Yasir Desai have reportedly ripped off their soundtrack for Baaghi, a famous biographical drama based on the late Qandeel Baloch. In a tweet, Haider targeted the musician and singer.

Haider took to Twitter to allege that Indian music directors Yasir Desai and Rashid Khan plagiarized his original song Baaghi. Haider said he was “not proud” of the fact that “someone in India copied his work” before anyone could tell him to “grow it up” or, worse, “feel proud”. off course not!”

Song ‘Piya Re Piya

In the song ‘Piya Re Piya’, Ada Sharma is with Asim Riaz. It is sung by Yasir Desai and composed by Rashid Khan. The lyrics of the song are by Anjan Sagari with Rashid Khan. Pakistani singer has expressed his displeasure over Yasir Desai and Rashid Khan. He said that the tune of his song ‘Baaghi’ has been stolen.

Shuja Haider writes, “Indian music directors Yasir Desai and Rashid Khan have copied my original song ‘Baaghi’ and it is not a matter of pride at all.” Next he gave the hashtag – #Apnabanaao (Make your own)

When Piya Re Piya seems to be nothing more than the replacement of Peera Ve Peera on the same melody with new songs, it is hard to deny the similarities between Piya Re Piya and Baaghi. The chorus of Piya Re Piya may be different, but the poem sounds similar to Baaghi. Supporters of Baaghi and Haider are calling on the singer to sue the Indian hit. Arab News journalist Abdul Wasi Naik feels the situation is unjust.

There is no statement from Desai or Khan on the claim so far.
