Veere Di Wedding Song Laaj Sharam: Fans Accuse Kareena Kapoor-Sonam Kapoor's Film of Copying From a Korean Song!
The latest song from Veere Di Wedding, starring Sonam Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan, finds itself mired in a plagiarism controversy.
It is a wonder that in this era where even a little bit of information is scrutinised, we still have film-makers trying to take stuff from other producers without giving relevant credibility. Music composers like Pritam and Anu Malik have often been accused of lifting tracks from other composers and countries. Now the latest song from Veere Di Wedding, starring Sonam Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan, finds itself mired in a plagiarism controversy.
The makers of Veere Di Wedding have released a new song from the movie called Laaj Sharam. The catchy track is composed by 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 handling the rap portions. The song, which was revealed some hours back, had become one of the top trends in YouTube.
