Anu Malik is getting a lot of hate on Twitter after many realised that he used Israeli National Anthem for "Mera mulk, mera desh" song in Ajay Devgn-Sonali Bendre starrer Diljale. It was played at the Tokyo Olympics after Gymnast Artem Dolgopyat won a medal. People from the 90s weren't shocked or surprised by this incident at all and you will know soon why. Is ‘Mera Mulk Mera Desh’ Song From Bollywood Movie Diljale Inspired by Israel’s National Anthem? Netizens Wonder if Anu Malik Copied the Music

Malik in his defense told Cinestaan, "By chance, if you feel the notes clash, that was not my intention as I have never heard the Israeli national anthem in my life ever. Also, Diljale is such an old film. Thank you for bringing this beautiful patriotic song and film into focus. I am thrilled to receive your message asking about my patriotic song "Mera Mulk" for when it was released, as far as I can remember, it never got its rightful due. Though it is played on every Republic Day." Ignorance is truly bliss. Anu Malik: It Is Not a Bad Idea to Recreate Old Songs If They Are Aesthetically Done
