Plagiarism: Its is the act of taking someone else’s creation, and passing it off as one’s own.
Now, quite frankly, how many times do we come across such cases in our very own Bollywood. It’ll probably take me a max of 2 minutes to list down atleast 10 songs that have been “inspired” from other songs. Yeah right !! 
There have been many ( though they deny it ) composers who have been in the news for songs they say are original works, though there are many pages on the www that list out the truth behind this.
And who, you may ask, is the newest addition to the Wall of Shame ?
Meet Mr. Pritam Chakraborthy, better known in the industry as just “Pritam(wiki:Here)”. Haven’t heard about him ? Just goto the Wiki and read on. Here’s what the first line reads.
Pritam Chakraborty, generally known simply as Pritam, is a Bollywood copycat music director and composer.
Now, THATs what I call an Introduction.
Do scroll down to see his list of plagiarised songs.
A good friend and fellow blogger, Amit has done an extensive and quite an impressive research @ his Movie Blog “MovieTonic” .
In a multi-part series, he explores and reveals a great detail about the songs ( the copy and the original ) in the series.
Amit Says:
I really like Pritam’s Music, but did not know he was such a big Copy Cat.
I happened to have a look at the First part of this Multipart series, and I’m shocked 
In this first part, he talks about the following 5 songs that were seen recently in the bollywood circuit, and did pretty well.
- Shikdum from Dhoom2
- “I Miss You Every Day” from Kya Love Story Hai ***New***
- lamha Lamha from Gangster
- Tu Hi Meri Shab Hai from Gangster
- Wicket Bacha from Hatrick
He’s done a great research ( @ Google and Youtube ) and has provided videos of the songs, both Original and the copy.
Great work done Amit… we’re waiting for the future parts.
And also,
Here’s fifty paise to Music composer(read: Stealer) Pritam, either to make his OWN creations, or hiding the original songs that he is “inspired” from. ( Cause I doubt he’s got a creative mind )
