It is heartbreaking how Bollywood, which once gave us some really heart-touching songs, is now indulging in churning out endless remixes or copies. No one can deny that Bollywood has left its fans disappointed when it comes to Music this year. With endless bad remixes or copies, many netizens have taken to social media to share how Bollywood has become a copy master and has no originality left.

Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone starrer Pathaan’s most awaited song Besharam Rang was released recently. While the song received mixed reviews, it fell into a new controversy. Many people have called out the Pathaan song on social media and have accused it of copying the French song – Makeba.
