When Mashallah came out majority of non-Salman fans (mostly but not all SRK fans) claimed it was a copy and yet it wasn't proved because it was an original song. Also, besides Chinta Ta Ta(which they bought rights for), Sajid Wajid haven't been accused for plagiarism for any other songs.

Well as Pritam, he is always been on limelight for copying music yet his music sells better than A.R Rahman's


Oh GOD.

Yknow what, I ain't gonna bother 😆

And also if you mean 'intention' rather than attention then it'll make more sense.

But yes, I saw this being the most popular article on the site so why not post it on here?

Every Salman hater does that to all negative articles based on him. Just swallow your anger and just tend to ignore these stuff like we ignore negativity on Salman. (Oh well I do unless it's on my thread).


😆 Why would i be angry in the first place. to have INTENTIONS one most have a reason right or wrong.you just wanted a little attention.here you go.that you can sit behind your PC with a strait face comparing Sajid Wajid with the Great A.R.Rahman is just 😕 .but coming from you is not a surprise🤢

I bet Sajid Wajid would become great for you once they do music for SRK movie. But anyway, AR Rahman despite being the most decorated music director of recent times. He hasn't had any top seller albums of the year.

1994 - HAHK
1995 - DDLJ
1996 - Raja Hindustani
1997 - Dil To Pagal Hai
1998 - Kuch Kuch Hota Hai
1999 - Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam
2000 - Kaho Na Pyaar Hai
2001 - Tum Bin
2002 - Devdas
2003 - Tere Naam
2004 - Veer Zaara
2005 - Bunty Aur Babli
2006 - Fanaa
2007 - Om Shanti Om
2008 - Race
2009 - Love Aaj Kal
2010 - Dabangg
2011 - Ready

Pity

Also I never made the comparison on they previous work coz AR Rahman's work is some legendary set of work there but in recent times, Vishal Shekhar, Sajid Wajid, Himesh Reshamiya and Pritam's done decent work with their compositions.

This thread is another epic fail attempt by insecure Salman fans to pull down his SRK's movie. I would suggest to these people to pray for Salman's failing health first instead of spreading negativity about his rivals.

I guess it's about time you's should figure that I am not the only one alleging this...

Revealed: Jab Tak Hai Jaan's Challa is copied from an English song!

Oscar winner AR Rahman is known for his wonderful and original music composition in the world. But it seems that this time the composer decided to take some inspiration from the west. Shahrukh Khan's Jab Tak Hai Jaan's song 'Challa' has an uncanny similarity with 'Save tonight' from the album Desireless, by Eagle Eye Cherry.

'Save Tonight' is hit song released in 1997. The alternative rock number is Swedish musician Eagle-Eye Cherry's most popular song and is still loved by many. When you listen to this song, you will realise that the music is quite similar to 'Challa' song, specially the opening guitar piece.

Though Rabbi's voice in 'Challa' song gives it a fresh feel. But honestly, we did not expect this from a world class musician like AR Rahman!

Jab Tak Hai Jaan is directed by Yash Chopra and it also stars Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma in the lead role. Jab Tak Hai Jaan will release on 13th November.





Shahrukh's Jab Tak Hai Jaan a flop show? | Song, poster copied

Mumbai: There has already been a lot of hullabaloo that Shahrukh Khan starrer Jab Tak Hai Jaan poster is copied from 2011 French war adventure Special Forces. The second thing that comes into light is the Challa song from the film, which is stirring quite a buzz around these days.

Apparently, the song is an inspiration from Swedish musician Eagle Eye Cherry's chartbuster number Save Tonight.

Challa is composed by ace music composer A R Rahman, on that note it is difficult to believe that it can be copied. However, the number sounds very similar to the 1997 hit, specially the guitar played in the beginning. Sung by Rabbi Shergill, the only refreshing thing about the musical is singer's voice.

Film Jab Tak Hai Jaan marks veteran filmmaker Yash Chopra's comeback to the industry after eight years. At the same time, the movie is also Chopra's last directorial, so ideally, the flick shouldn't have gained such negative popularity in the very beginning of its promotions. All we can do is just hope that the film's story too does not turn out to be a copy from an old hit.

Apart from Shahrukh, the film stars Katrina Kaif in lead and Anushka Sharma in an extended cameo. The film will hit the theatres on November 13.


Jab Tak Hai Jaan: Is 'Challa' song inspired from 'Save Tonight'?

  • Challa song|
  • AR Rahman
(Shah Rukh Khan in Jab Tak')

Although world renowned musician and singer AR Rahman is known for his original composition, but this time his originality is under a cloud.

Swedish musician Eagle-Eye Cherry's popular song,'Save Tonight' from his album 'Desireless' is identical to Rahman's 'Challa' song from his latest movie Jab Tak Hai Jaan, especially the opening notes of guitar.


'Save Tonight' is one of the best known songs of Cherry and has gained popularity worldwide. The song is considered Cherry's signature song.

On the other hand, 'Challa' song is sung by sufi singer Rabbi Shergill, who has first time lent his voice to Shah Rukh Khan for this Yash Chopra's film. Though Rabbi has sung the song in his own style yet his pitch and tone will also remind you of Cherry's singing.

Listen to Eagle-Eye Cherry's song 'Save Tonight' I Listen to Jab Tak Hai Jaan's song 'Challa'

AR Rahman and Gulzar have teamed up for this Yash Chopra's last directorial. The song'Challa' has already become a viral on the YouTube like the movie's trailer.

Jab Tak Hai Jaan is scheduled to release this Diwali on 13th November, 2012

^^^Go pray for Salman's failing health instead of finding lame negative news about SRK's film. Salman needs your prayers. These allegations are made by insecure people like you who didnt expect that SRK's one song will create more buzz than all songs of Salman's film.

no offence mate, but not everyone measure quality in terms of "best seller' bullshit

AR Rahman IS a decorated music director, for a very valid reason.

Yes, other composers' albums sell like hotcakes aaj kal, great for them, their style completely clicks with what people like, and that can't be taken away from them.

but in terms of quality...

none of them have their tracks in BBC's top 10 tracks of all time, nor the top albums
None of them've got four National Awards
none of them have got academic awards
none of them have been nominated for the Grammys
None of them have 15 Filmfare awards (just in Bollywood FF btw, not even talking about South Indian)
None of them get random showerings of Doctorates

Just saying x]

In any case, I'm a massive fan of AR Rahman, and you aren't, so this entire post can go down the gutter for you for all anyone cares

Salman songs create buzz before it's release. Like Munni Badnaam, Dhinka Chika, Teri Meri, Banjaara - people knew his songs before the release. And Like Seeti Baje Ke from Dabangg 2 has already got huge hype and is the most highly anticipated song of the year. SRK's Challa didn't even reach out to audience till it released. I am sure his Chammak Challo did better with all that Akon hype. His Mashallah created huge hype and got positive reviews. Even charted on #1 position on first week while Challa still hasn't made it to the charts,

Salman has way too many followers that worships him all the time. His health at current state looks better than that heavy smoker SRK. Who will soon figure out the outcomes of heavy smoking especially in public. Even his daughter got sick of it.

Also. Stop taking digs at Salman's personal health issues. You can make fun of his professional life with hi career to films to relationships to even his controversies. But his health issues are rather serious matter which makes you look cruel-hearted.
