As the Veere Di Wedding tram is celebrating the success of their music album in Mumbai, one of the songs is already creating a stir on social networking sites. We had done a story on how Veere Di Wedding's most recently launched song, Laaj Sharam, has been accused of plagiarising a Korean song called Girls Girls Girls. Though the song isn't an exact replica of the Korean hit, the beats are somewhat similar prompting the accusations of copying.

The Korean song belongs to the popular boy band, GOT7. Laaj Sharam's composing credits have gone to White Noise, which is an A&R (artists and repertoire) venture of the popular composers, Sachin-Jigar. Laaj Sharam is sung by Divya Kumar and Jasleen Royal, with Enbee doing the rap portions. While there is no news if GOT7 is planning to take any action against the producers of the movie, the fans have taken it upon themselves to make sure the song is taken down from YouTube.

We are not sure if the efforts are worth it, but we do appreciate the emotions of the fans. Check out some of the tweets calling out the plagiarism and looking to take down the video -

Interestingly, this Twitter user even mentions that Zee Music Company, that holds the music rights of Veere Di Wedding, have taken off negative comments from the YouTube link of the song.

Veere Di Wedding stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, Swara Bhasker and Shikha Talsania. The movie is directed by Shashanka Ghosh and is produced by Rhea Kapoor, Ekta Kapoor and Nikhil Dwivedi. Veere Di Wedding is scheduled to release on June 1.
