subject: Copy-cat Music Directors Of Hindi Film Industry [print this page] Anu Malik is more known as a famous copy cat Music director than just a famous music director. If he has given a huge number of hit songs to Hindi film industry it is most of the time someone elses work for which he got applauded. He got praises for the simple work of modification and surely that needs a huge talent as well. Well if it is again a talent that our Hindi film industry has got so many talented music directors apart from Anu Malik. Buy Bollywood images of Anu Malik and know all about his career in Hindi film industry as a music director.
Be it an Old school or a punk of today, everyone starts swaying when the song Chura Liya Hai Tumne from movie Yaadon Ki Baraat is played. If you think it is an amazing job done by music director, R.D. Burman, you are so wrong! Indeed he has done a really good job by introducing this song to us, but it is just an altered English song. And the original one is If It's Tuesday This Must Be Belgium by Walter Scharf. Again the song Tera Mujhse Hai Pehle ka Nata Koi from movie Aa Gale Lag Jaa was a copy of The Yellow Rose Of Texas sung by Elvis Presley. Well, here we can say the Hindi version is more melodious.
Similarly When I Need You by Leo Sayer is the original of song Tumse Mil Ke of movie Parinda and I Have A Dream gave R.D. Burman the inspiration for the song Kaisa Tera Pyaar of the movie Love Story. The song from the movie Sholey that shook the music chart Mehbooba Mehbooba is a copy of Say You Love Me by Demis Roussos. Actually the difference in these songs is really very slight. Song of Golden Era of Hindi film industry Babuji Dheere Chalna from movie Aar Paar is a copy of Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps sung by Doris Day and we praise music director O.P. Nayyar for that song. Buy videos of these songs and compare which are the best songs, the original or the copied ones.
Who does not remember the song Jeevan Ke Safar Mein Rahi from the movie Munimji. The original music was not a creation of S.D. Burman but it is a music which is traditionally played during Mexican Hat Dance. Koi Yahan Naache Naache from movie Disco Dancer is still our one of the favorite songs when we are dancing in discotheques. It is originally Video Killed The Radio Star by The Buggles which is copied by our very own Bappi Da. But remind you, his Oye- Oye was also copied by a foreigner music director, so basically it was a give and take thing. We have a huge list of music directors that on a regular basis introduce us English songs in Hindi versions but indeed the copy-cat title go to Mr. Anu Malik . Anand-Milind, Rajesh Roshan, Jatin-Lalit etc are few of the names who have built their career on the hard work of other music directors.
