Copycat competition

Warriors of Heaven and Earth” is one if the masterpiece by A.R.Rahman. This was his first Chinese movie where he gave tremendous music tracks. Though the movie did not go well, A.R.Rahman’s music made a wave in Chinese film industry and the music track of this movie was released as a separate music album, “Between Heaven and Earth”, which contains all BGMs and two songs. I have already written a post, Between Heaven and Earth, on this.

This post is nothing to speak about A.R.Rahman. This is all about other music directors, copycats, who stole his music and used in their movies. First listen to the original track given below. I love this.

Now it is time to listen the copycat work. Though there is a huge list I just posted a few below.

Kalaaba Kadhalan – Niru

Nottam – Jayachandran M

Thagappansamy – Srikanth Deva

Ek Ajnabee – Amar Mohile

Asadhyudu -Chakri

Zinda – Shibani Kashyap

If a tune is catchy then they can have it as a base, inspiration, and produce their own tune. But what I see here is, a copycat work.

    Hey Niru hadnt copied the entire song, i mean he had copied it for the trailer though. I was furious initially thinking he has used it in some song but then after listening to the songs I realized he hadnt used a bit of the one he used for the trailer, btw kalaba kadhalan had 1 or 2 good songs too.
